Karndean maintenance

Stage 1 – Basic Cleaner and Stripper

Preparation
Newly laid floors should be left for at least 24 hours before you replace furniture or clean the floor. Before using our cleaning and maintenance products, you should sweep the floor with a soft brush.

Following installation, use to remove all remains of adhesive.

Subsequently, use to remove previous applications of Dim Glow floor protector.

Dilute Basic Cleaner and Stripper approximately 1:5 with water (4 divider lines [200ml] to one litre of water – covers approx. 10m2). Spread solution liberally over the floor with mop.

Leave to work for approximately 5 minutes.

Scrub the floor with the blue applicator and green pad.


 

Remove residue with mop, then rinse thoroughly with clean water.
 

Basic Cleaner and Stripper should NOT be allowed to dry on the floor. While applying Basic Cleaner and Stripper wear rubber gloves. For the removal of stubborn marks, use Basic Cleaner and Stripper undiluted.

Stage 2 – Dim Glow Floor Protector

Dim Glow Floor Protector creates a matt, anti-slip film finish to help protect your floor from marks and fine scratches, and helps to simplify routine cleaning.
Before proceeding with application ensure the floor is completely dry and free of all traces of Basic Cleaner and Stripper.

Using the blue applicator with the white pad, spread a thin and even layer of undiluted Dim Glow floor protector, in one direction.

 

Leave this layer to dry for approximately 30 minutes...

…then repeat the process in a transverse direction.
(IMPORTANT: white pad must be rinsed thoroughly immediately afterwards, for future use).
 

Leave to dry without walking on the surface for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight.

Note: When, after a period of time, the Dim Glow needs replenishing, begin the process from stage 1 again. To maintain the protective layer, the Dim Glow floor protector will need to be stripped and reapplied every 6 months or so.
 

Stage 3 – Routine Cleaner

Use regularly for easy cleaning of your Karndean floor.
 

Use 50ml (1 divider line) in a bucket with about 8 to 10 litres of water.

Keeping the mop damp, not wet, mop over the entire floor area. Leave to dry.
 

Attention: Keep locked up and out of reach of children.
