Sports Floor Care Keep Your Gym Floor Looking Good! No Street Shoes Street shoes are bad for gym floors. They transfer sand and grit to your floor which can scratch and dull the gym floor coating. A well planned maintenance program helps you retain a high level of appearance and protects your gym floor. Follow these simple maintenance procedures to keep your floor in tip-top shape. Dust Mop with Super Hil-Tone or Hil-Mist ® ® As a general rule, your gym floor should be dust mopped with Hillyard Super Hil-Tone or Hil-Mist after every two hours of use. The dust mops used on your gym floor should be dedicated to the gym only and not used on other floors in your building. After the gym has been dust mopped, the mop should be taken outside and shaken vigorously to free all dirt and dust which is clinging to the strands. Treating New or Freshly Laundered Mops: 1. Apply two ounces of dressing per foot of mop length. 2. Do NOT use treated mop immediately. 3. Hang overnight with the wicks down so the dressing can penetrate evenly throughout the wicks. Re-treat Dust Mops Daily: Apply one ounce of dressing per foot of mop length. Damp Mop or Autoscrub with Super Shine-All ® Clean your gym floor at least weekly using a solution of Hillyard Super Shine-All. Super Shine-All will remove stubborn soils, spills, perspiration and other foreign matter from the floor. Mix Super Shine-All at a rate of two ounces per gallon of water in an automatic scrubber or mop bucket. Use an automatic scrubber with a CLEAN white pad. www.hillyard.com 109
