    Polyflor do there own seal recommended to go over pu. I've used it and its ok.plus it's obviously there own too so it's recommended not that it makes any difference like.

    The dr schutz kit is around £20- £30. Well worth it to keep your expensive floor looking great for years to come.

    be careful boys, they are all different products, the stuff from Granwood and most of the products from the polyfloor range are mostly emulsion polishes,which wear off and can be chemically stripped.but once you start you have to keep applying.
    Dr schults is a two part polyurethane-based sealer, its very smilier or the same as bona traffic, very very hard wearing and once done thats it,
    most products have PU coatings done at the factory now, Karndean products have it and do not need sealing now, they still have on the web site how to restore and you have to apply sealer after its been stripped, but i am sure this is the old stuff before they use the PU coatings,
    Beveline has a PU coating as well so i am surprised they say put on an emulsion polish
    this is from Karndean website
    K Guard +

    Karndean’s surface protection system, K Guard +, uses PU technology to ensure that there is no need to apply an additional surface treatment following installation. It also works as a barrier against scuff marks, stains and fine scratches for the coming years.

    No it was only a bathroom, I think we put it on with a mop or a cloth. All I remember was you could hardly stand on it without your feet slowly sliding apart and it took all day scrubbing it off by hand. Not happy

    All distinctive products are pu coated but we still recommend the dr shurtz kit for peace of mind

    Funnily enough I've just bought two cans of the Dr shutz pu sealer for a vinyl floor i laid recently. Flippin expensive trade price is about 160+vat for a 5l that does 50sm. Watched the video on their site and you can see its a permanent hard wearing product with hopefully no future maintenance.
