Why do people play music instead of explaining I though this was a how to video
EXACTLY!!!! THANK YOU!!!! I was so pissed off when he just played music and didn’t explain sweet FA was so annoying ugh
For the life of me I just can’t understand it. They must don’t know we are men that live to hear what real machinery sounds like.
Same smh
lol 😂 When I listened to his introduction It sounded like he was going to explain his techniques but instead I got to enjoy music. Results look good tho 👍🏼👍🏼
You should be able to watch and see exactly what he's doing... Just copy it and you'll be able to do it
Use to use the same wand but with the back pack attachment, makes things go really really smooth.
I just lied to my boss, so now I'm watching this to cover my ass🤣, thank you.
Same lmao
LMAO same here and I start tomorrow at 5am I'm like sheet
@josephrodriguez447 good luck my guy fr, I nailed it. N I'm a raging pothead
@@chaddy1259 yeah thanks man I'm just one of those slow learner guys that have to be told how to do something over and over but I know I can do it if I try.
I feel you, I'm watching tutorials as I'm doing it right now. Fake it till you make it.
Nice! I'll be waxing my first time on Friday, can't wait to bring the floor back to life...wish me luck 🙏👏
are you a pro now??
show off!! wow great work!
❤❤❤❤ I do this for a living at U.H. I'm a floor tech as well. And I've been doing this for 15 years now I want to start my own floor tech business some day, but I'm so discouraged because a lot of competition out there.
I’ve had this idea for a while now. I remember buffing floors in basic training. Popped in my head that it might be something I could start a business doing in my area. I just don’t know where to start. Do you have any input? I was wanting to just do buffing. Hardwood and tile floors. Not sure if a single buffer can do both.
I'm a floor tech at a hospital in Houston been doing it for about 16 years now and I had the same idea. A co worker tried doing it as a side hustle. Invested in a van, the equipment, supplies, chemicals, everything. He stopped after 2 years cause it seemed like nobody cared about how their floors looked. He would try to get business from small private schools, barber shops, hair salons, nail salons, restaurants, and other small businesses and 9 times out of 10 the answer was we're not interested. That really discouraged me too. I'm just sharing a story don't let what I said stop you💪
I just started a company and put this as something I do. 😂😂 thanks 🙏🏾
Needed a video to remind me cause I haven’t done it in a year and this is how I was taught. 😂 the other videos scared me
Can you tell me what is the name of the wet vac you are using?
can you tell me what the push broom is called exactly and where to purchase it?
Excellent
Felicidades
Question, is there any product at any local store as Home Depot or Lowe's that doesn't require the use of a machine for VCT?
What’s an average price for stripping and waxing? I have to bid on commercial job this week. And they want it waxed with 5 coats!
Wish our boss show this video before i started the job
What's the difference between floor waxing and polishing?
NIIIIICE!
Question.
At 3:19 , when you are scrubbing, is that stripper liquid in the reservoir above it?? Or do you lay down solution before hand?
We put down the stripper and let it work for 10 to 15 minutes and follow by the scrubber.
Strip & wax takes me a lot of time !!!!!! Any pointers on how to speed up the procedure ??? Thanks
There is no faster way. Over time you learn a few little tricks to make your own process slightly quicker, but mainly there is no way to speed up the steps to doing it properly. My biggest advice would be to re wet the stripper after scrubbing so it has no chance of drying up on you while extracting. That takes having to do it twice out of the equation. Good luck!
Depends on the area and the staff. For large areas and 2-3 people, get a routine down. Break the area into sections that will take 15 minutes to scrub with the machine. Apply stripper to the first one. Allow to dwell for 10-15 minutes. Apply stripper to the second section and start scrubbing the first. When you finish the first, the second will be ready to be scrubbed. Have a second person apply stripper to the third and subsequent areas as you go, and pick up the slurry when you're done scrubbing. If you've got three people, one person should be applying stripper, and hand scrubbing edges, uses a sharp floor scraper to remove heavy buildup, especially around edges, etc., while the third picks up the slurry and rinses the floor. Once the person with the scrubber starts scrubbing, they shouldn't ever stop until they reach the end of the work area for the day.
For extremely large areas, like an entire grocery store, look into high-speed propane stripping machines. Some of those can do 5k-10k square feet per hour. Slightly less daunting, autoscrubbers are great for rinsing, just don't put stripper in them. Walk behind wet-vacs are dramatically faster than canisters with wands.
Also, know your chems. Some strippers rely heavily on volatile solvents. You need to mix those with cold water. Hot water will flash off the solvents, leaving a weak solution behind. Read the slurry as you go. If you have a lot of finish that's staying stuck to the floor, add more stripper; if you have a lot of stringy or chunky stuff, add more water. You can add these directly to the floor as you scrub. When you hit the right amount of both the slurry will turn to foamy water. Never allow stripper or this slurry to dry. Keep it wet until you can vacuum it up.
Lastly, practice! This is a skill that takes time to learn to do well, and more time to learn to do well while also doing it quickly.
Look at the instructions from the chemicals you are using.
1. Put down stripper solution. Probably have to dilute. Read directions.
2. Use the buffing machine to aggitate the stripper.
3. Dont let the stripping solution dry.
4. Pick up the strip solution with a vaccum.
5. Wet mop with water only.
6. Apply wax. Dont walk on it.
7. Allow to dry. Some people use fans. Probably tells you not to on instructions.
8. Apply several coats depending on your type of wax. See instructions.
9. You can add a sealant to the wax.
Tip. Ensure you have protective footware. We had someone need skin graphs for leaving stripper on his foot too long.
Le quedo muy bonito, Que marca es el wax que le pone al final ?????
Usamos varias marcas.
@@Rodriguezcleanpro I know ink k nine kmmm mkm
Eso no ayuda si nos podras decir una De las marcas los ayudarla muncho. Por ejemplo voy ir a homedepot a compare El wax polish que recomiendas?
El solo es el ayudante que empuja la máquina, no sabe nada de marcas ni wax
@@Rodriguezcleanprocan you explain the process please . #1 #2 #3! etc.. please , Thank you!
Can I mop the stripper up manually or do I have to use the wet vacuum?
You can but you will have to mop the floors several times.
👍👍
What kind of stripper are using
Do you need to buff afterwards?
Not till a week later
Center that scrub pad.
You were scrubbing and wax not stripping and wax, there’s a big difference

Cuanto cobras por pie cuadrado ? Para strip y wax
@@scottcleaningservicesllc6662 yo cobro entre 40-60sq y si es un piso que esta muy jodido y necesita como 2 o 3 pasadas de stripper a 90 centavos por pie cuadrd
Good video but nothing explained about how to do it....
Agree
Where you guys from ?
We are in Louisville Kentucky. Thanks for your car
If the black floor looks blue after washing, why is it?
It’s wax
How much strip chemical you mix in the water
I am not the man of the video but most times I do a 4:1 ratio 4 Gallons Hot Water to 1 Gallon of Stripper
Covid Era 😊
😮
Why does the pad wobble?
Sometimes it move like that. I don’t know why it does it.
Is wobbles because it's not centered in the pad mount
That's how I wax... Side to side by covering the floor entirely.
You don’t have enough chemical on the floor to get the wax up properly. And your pad isn’t on straight.
Newer worker? Not bad person could learn to cut line's would end up with better end result but for ppl that don't do the work they'll never be able to see.
He didn't give any details
This explained nothing
Throw some more water on floor dude
