Key Features

  • Strips and removes most acrylic polymer floor dressings, sealers and polishes
  • Non-ammoniated: no ammonia odour or handling exposure
  • Immediate reaction on contact, reducing dwell time and labour cost
  • Highly concentrated: dilutes up to 1:5 with water
  • Selection of non-ionic and anionic surfactants plus glycol ethers
  • Proprietary preservatives extend shelf life
  • Environmentally friendly and biodegradable
  • Doubles as a heavy-duty cleaner on polymer-sealed surfaces

Applications

  • As a pretreatment stripper to prepare new floors for sealing with acrylic-based polymer floor polishing products
  • As a cleaner and stripper on all surfaces where an acrylic polymer floor sealer or polish has been applied
  • Periodic strip-and-repolish cycles in commercial and institutional facilities
  • Preparation of floors before applying GEARTH FloorGlow

How to use FloorLift

Dilute FloorLift up to 1:5 (weight for weight) with water. Go stronger or weaker depending on how thick the coating is and what type of polymer is on the floor.

  1. Dilute: mix up to 1:5 w/w with water, depending on coating thickness and polymer type.
  2. Apply: spread the solution evenly over the surface.
  3. Dwell: leave it for a few minutes. The reaction begins immediately.
  4. Scrub: scrub the surface to lift the softened polymer.
  5. Rinse: rinse well with clean water before resealing or repolishing.
Dilution
Up to 1:5 w/w with water, set by coating thickness and polymer type

12 to 13 (alkaline)
Shelf life

About FloorLift

FloorLift strips most acrylic polymer floor dressings, sealers and polishes. It starts reacting on contact, so a strip and repolish takes less time and labour. The non-ammoniated, highly concentrated formula combines non-ionic and anionic surfactants with glycol ethers, and it doubles as a cleaner.

FloorLift: frequently asked questions

Does FloorLift contain ammonia?

No. It is a non-ammoniated stripper, so there is no ammonia odour or handling exposure.

How strong should the mix be?

Dilute up to 1:5 weight for weight with water. Thicker coatings and tougher polymers need a stronger mix.

How long do I leave it before scrubbing?

A few minutes. The reaction starts immediately on contact, then you scrub to lift the softened polymer and rinse.

What protective equipment do I need?

It has a pH of 12 to 13, so wear gloves and eye protection, and test an inconspicuous area first.
