Preparing and cleaning the surface
1. Carefully clean the surface, making sure to remove any dust or dirt present.
2. We recommend proceeding to apply the product in stages, covering surfaces approximately
2m2 at a time.
3. Never apply A1 YELLOW to wet surfaces. A1 YELLOW can be used on slightly damp surfaces;
therefore, please ensure that the surface to be treated is as dry as possible.
4. Apply A1 YELLOW to surfaces with a temperature of between +5 and +40°C
5. Any adjacent surfaces not being treated with the product must be protected.
Application
6. Pour 2-3 spoons of product onto the surface to be treated.
7. Add a sufficient amount of water to the product to create a creamy/fluid paste that is easy to
distribute. As a rough guide, each spoonful of product requires around 2 spoons of water.
8. As soon as the water has been added to the powder, proceed to apply it to the surface using
the single disc machine, fitted with white pad and set to between 150 and 200 r.p.m. Continue
with the single disc machine, taking care to cover the whole surface area evenly with the
powder and water paste. Try to pass over each section of floor the same number of times.
9. During the application process, the mix must maintain its creamy consistency and therefore,
if it should become too dry, gradually add a little water.
10. Continue to buff with the single disc machine until the surface has reached its maximum
shine. The shine results are easy to check during application by removing a small area of
product using a squeegee mop or similar, and checking the level of shine achieved.
11. Once the required shine has been achieved, vacuum or remove any residues from the
surface and rinse with plenty of clean water. Pass on to the area of the next surface.
For buffing after polishing and to restore shine on particularly worn surfaces, pass over each
section at least 20-25 times with the single disc machine.
For maintenance polishing passing over each section 10-15 times with the single disc machine
is sufficient; use a slightly smaller amount of powder, around 1-2 spoonfuls for each section.
Drying time
12. After carefully removing any residues and rinsing the surface with water, no further waiting
time is necessary.
Opening to floor traffic
13. After carefully removing any residues and rinsing the surface with water, the floor can be
opened for use.
