FLOOR CLEANING PROCEDURES

 

DAILY PROCEDURES 

 

The procedures described below are intended to help rid your sports floor of the build-up of films left from shoes and other materials that come into contact with the sports floor. The directions described below will help restore lustre to the floor’s finish and surface.

  • Mix a solution of 1:30 Enhance Floor Cleaner with lukewarm water in a 20-Litre bucket.
  • Submerge an Enhance Floor Towel into the Enhance Floor Cleaner solution until it is completely wet. Wring the towel to a damp state, voiding the towel of excessive water.
  • Lay the damp Enhance Floor Towel on the floor, place an Enhance Floor Bar on the towel and fold the top of the towel over the top of the cleaning bar. Connect it via the eyelets and Velcro and connect the rope handle to each end.
  • Place the rope handle in front of you and walk the length of the floor. When turning around at each end make sure that a 150mm overlap is maintained. Reposition the Enhance Floor Towel if necessary and walk the length of the floor back to the other end.
  • The Enhance Floor Towel is large enough that there are numerous positions where the Enhance Floor Bar can be moved to. This allows for multiple uses before having to machine wash the Enhance Floor Towel.
  • If the towel has been used completely, change the Enhance Floor Towel and repeat the above procedures until the entire floor has been cleaned. Change with new towel and repeat the above procedure until the entire floor has been cleaned.
  • To remove black shoe heel and sole marks, rub the mark with a rag that has been dampened with white spirits.
  • Gum may be removed by using a plastic scraper and a suitable Gum Remover. After the gum has been removed, clean the affected area with a towel that has been dampened with Enhance Floor Cleaner solution.

 

FREQUENCY OF CLEANING YOUR SPORTS FLOOR

Normal usage is defined by the number of hours your sports floor has activity on it. ASF would consider normal usage to be 8 hours per day. One clean per day would be sufficient.

For day/night facilities it is recommended that your floor be cleaned prior to the evening activities commencing.
