I'm getting quite a few requests for re-coating water-based lacquered floors lately, and would like to hear the views of others regarding the procedure they use and what cleaning fluids plus types of screen they recommend. Bob www.floorfixer.co.uk
I've looked into doing this but non of the manufacturers would guarantee their products? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Scrub,wet vac.Screen with 80 grit ,RO with 80 grit around perimeter.Vac and apply two coats lacquer. We do loads in one particular school.Price depends on m2 and quality of lacquer your recoating with.
The only The only manufacturer I have heard of who is offing a warranty on products is Pallmann, and they have a policy which insists on you attending their 'parketproffi' course on an annual basis. I have completed their course once, but have decided not to continue as you will find that the guarantees given by most flooring companies are usually worthless once you have carefully examined the small print in their Terms & Conditions. You will be the one returning to do any remedial work at your own expense, as labour costs will not be covered. More info on this link: www.floorfixer.co.uk/guarantee Bob
Thanks for your explanation, we use a P120 screen or a black pad on the buffer and find this sufficient to create a key for the next coat. See more on this link: www.floorfixer.co.uk/polish Bob
Some of the floors we recoat are done two coats every year so we can be more aggressive and use the 80.
We recoat a 450m2 school hall every year Pall x 96. Autoscrub ,80 grit,vac, Pallmann 350 one thin coat then 2 coats of Pall X 96.All as Pallmann recommended instructions.
I take it that you don't use an intensive alkaline based deep-cleaning solution to remove stubborn soiling and organic residue. This would surely be recommended - especially if the room was also used for dining to remove fatty food spillage? Bob
No we don't use one Bob.These floors are cleaned daily premises manager is pretty thorough.Our biggest problem is cleaning solution build up.
