hi there,

johnsons market 3 products that do the job

johnsons carefree stripper, -- strips and removes the old polish

johnsons emulsion polish -- does what it says on the container

johnsons carefree floor maintainer -- used to mop the protected floor.

other companies including prochem do a similar family of products. 

But thats a basic way of doing the job, the decision is who's chemicals do you use??

and if you want to make anymore complicated then its upto you

regards

martin

Strippnig off old polish can be difficult, leave the stripper down to work as long as you can. If you can use the non self nuetralising products then they will give a better first treatment result. But sometimes you may have to resort to several applications of stripper and the use of a metal scraper particularly around the edge of the floor. Seldens strippers work very well and can be obtained through the express supplies website.
