Sandscreening
(Wood Floors)
Sandscreening is ideal for refinishing the polyurethane coating on hard wood floors. The procedure is not designed to totally remove the old polyurethane, but smooth out imperfections and prime the floor for a new fresh coating. However, polyurethane coatings are generally very durable and look good for a long time - try a thorough cleaning before refinishing the polyurethane coating to see if the luster can be restored.
Equipment and Material Required:
Procedure:
1.Completely dust mop floor.
2.Wipe up spills with a dry cloth or paper towel. Use a slightly damp cloth for sticky spills. Hint: Buff with white polish pad to restore luster.
3.To apply paste wax: Attach black drive pad holder to Orbiter®
of paste wax on 4 sections of white polish pad. Place white polish pad on floor and center black drive pad holder onto pad. Work Orbiter®
5 minutes. Turn white polish pad over to clean side and buff. Use tan polish brush or lamb’s wool bonnet to obtain a higher luster.

2.When areas of heavy use no longer respond to buffing, wax only those areas and buff all of the floor to an even luster.
