Cleaning And Maintenance
CLEANING:
As with any type of floor regular cleaning will maintain Locktile’s® attractive appearance
and ensure maximum life for your floor.
After sweeping, any type of mop and general purpose cleaning detergent may be used to
clean your Locktile® floor. However in order to obtain best results and maximum life
from your floor we recommend using a micro fiber mop system with twin compartment
bucket available from most hardware or janitorial supply centers, together with a neutral
PH cleaning detergent such as “Fabuloso® all purpose cleaner”.
MAINTENANCE:
General
Although Locktile® is resistant to oil and most chemicals (see technical specification
sheet) Nonetheless, it is prudent to remove any spillages as soon as possible.
Coating
For additional; protection and a enhanced look it is worth considering applying 2 coats of
TILEGUARD 88™ (see product information)
Tire Marks
For applications prone to tire marking especially where marking tires are used on light
color tiles, we recommend the application of TIREGUARD 44™ on all floor areas that
are in contact with the tires. (See product information).
