hi people
how do you strip and re seal a terrazzo floor,
i have been asked to quote a job in a foyer at a hotel.
is there a special chemical to strip it and is there a non slip sealer that i could put on it.

Hi Jonny,
First question, has the floor been laid in situ and what are the strips seperated by?
Second question, or is the floor your talking about in actual fact tiles?
Third question, does the floor actually need stripping and re-sealing?
Are you sure you need to do this, if so can you explain whats wrong with the floor?
As Martin has said, it is not an easy process, nor is it quick, but plenty of opportunity to make very expensive mistakes, I can give you guidelines, certainly, but you really do need to know what your doing, regards,

hi thanx for your reply guys
answers to your questions i hope this will help you and me ,
the floor is in tiles i think the sizes are 1and a half foot by 8 inch
its white in colour and the reason i think it would be better striped and re sealed is it will look better, and it could be a nice little earner, it has worn down in the walking area mainly the reception area, its not too bad but i would like to give it an even look. no patches. ???
thanx jonny

Hi Jonny no time this morning, but just another quickie, do you feel that because of the wear, the floor will need vitrification?
Depending on answer, will try to give you some more info later on today, regards,
Rob
