Base
There are two kinds of
base wax: paste wax and liquid
polishing wax.
Paste wax
To spread wax evenly, attach
scrubbing-waxing-polishing
brushes to shampoo-polisher and
snap on cleaning-waxing pads.
Spread a thin coat of wax on
pads or spread a small amount on
floor with spatula. Start by press-
ing handle release lever and
lowering handle. Apply wax to
floor, by guiding in straight lines
or with grain of the wood, until
the wax is spread evenly.
Cleaning, polishing wax
This type of wax is used to clean
as well as wax floors. Apply wax
according to instructions on the
container. Use the
polisher only to polish floors
when this type of wax is used.
Refer to section “Cleaning floors
-Solvent cleaning wax method”.
Polishing and
buffing floors
Floors waxed with solvent-base
wax may be polished and buffed
with the shampoo-polisher.
1. Be sure wax is thoroughly dry
before polishing. This usually
takes 20-30 minutes but may take
longer in damp weather.
2. Use
polishing brushes to polish floor.
Press handle release and start by
lowering handle. Guide the
shampoo-polisher in straight lines
or with the grain of the wood.
3. A double coat of wax will give
floors more protection. Let wax
dry thoroughly and polish after
each application.
