UHS BURNISHING PROCEDURES<br />

DRY<br />

High speed burnishing is used <strong>to</strong> maintain a high gloss shine on floors.<br />

Chemicals<br />

• None<br />

<strong>Procedures</strong><br />

Equipment<br />

• Caution signs<br />

• High speed burnisher (1500 rpm or more)<br />

• Burnishing pads<br />

• Dust mop<br />

Burnishing should be performed only after performing general cleaning<br />

procedures with an au<strong>to</strong>scrubber. Failure <strong>to</strong> au<strong>to</strong>scrub will result in<br />

discoloration and increase the need for stripping operations.<br />

1. Assemble your equipment<br />

2. Post caution signs indicating which areas are being burnished.<br />

3. Attach the appropriate burnishing pad <strong>to</strong> burnisher. Consult your<br />

Zep field service rep for the correct pad for your program. Additional<br />

burnishing pads must be on hand.<br />

4. Make a steady pass over floor at a rate that provides a high gloss<br />

on only one pass. Do not allow burnisher <strong>to</strong> stand idle while it’s<br />

running.<br />

5. Change pad on burnisher when it becomes necessary.<br />

6. After entire area has been burnished, floor must be dry mopped.<br />

7. Clean equipment and return <strong>to</strong> its appropriate location.<br />

8. Remove caution signs.<br />

9. Note: After several dry burnishings it may be required <strong>to</strong> use a<br />

revitalizer <strong>to</strong> repair the finish and regain a ultra high gloss shine.<br />
