Why Use Synthetic Floor Finishes Rather Than Wax?
Most cleaning contractors these days are using synthetic floor finishes rather than natural waxes. This is because natural wax has a number of disadvantages:
- Less slip resistance than synthetic floor finishes
- Wax tends to leave swirl marks, which are hard to remove
- Wax is softer than synthetic finishes so it holds more soil
- Requires more frequent maintenance to keep up the appearance
- Can yellow as it ages
- Scratches easily
With so many floor care products to choose from, it's easy to pick the wrong one for the job. Consult with your local janitorial supplier about the type of floor you'll be servicing and discuss the results you're looking for. This will help you choose the best product for the job at hand.
