Coverage:
500-1000 square feet per 5 LB can. Coverage variation is based on the texture and porosity of the floor.
Tools needed:
• Floor Machine - Low speed (175 rpm) • Bassine Brush • Union Mix Brush • Soft cotton cloth
Surface Prep:
Concrete must be clean and free of dirt, dust, oil, grease, mold and mildew, and any other contaminants. Acid stained concrete must be neutralized, thoroughly cleaned, and dry prior to waxing.
Application:
Apply roughly a quarter cup of wax directly to the floor. Set the floor machine with Bassine brush on top of the wax dollop. This prevents the wax from being flung away from the brush. Spread the wax to a uniform appearance being careful to not leave any ridges of wax behind. Repeat this process in small sections throughout the entire floor. Walls, corners and edges can be hand applied using a soft cotton cloth.
Allow the wax to dry (approximately 20-40 minutes), you will notice the floor during initial application becomes very dark, when the color lightens up uniformly you may begin the buffing process. Or in some cases, such as rough floors you may wish to add a second coat to the floor prior to buffing.
Once dry, buff the floor using a Union Mix brush. A nice low sheen gloss will develop immediately. Edges and corners that cannot be reached with the Union Mix brush can be hand buffed using a clean cotton cloth.
OPTIONAL:
To develop a slightly higher gloss the London Wax can be buffed using a high speed burnisher (1500-2000 rpm) using a pad designed for soft finishes.
Maintenance:
Dust mop using a microfiber pad, wet mop using Active Elements – Daily Clean neutral pH floor cleaner. Do not use harsh chemicals or cleaners on the waxed floor. Scuffs and marks can be buffed out using a soft cotton cloth. Dull spots can be fixed by hand applying additional wax and then buffing with a soft cotton cloth.
Clean Up:
Tools can be cleaned using mineral spirits.
