Man you did a great job! If legal contacts you the pictures you have are all you need. She obviously has a responseability to do her part to keep her shower clean and free on mold. I love it when people ask me how long a job will stay clean and shiney and I always always always tell them that...

Hey Rob, I'm ready to buy a wand please give me a call as I have a few questions. Thanks Alan Wirth Afc Floor Care 813-610-4616

If it turns darker when wet it could be a natural material like cork. Just remember to test a small area like under a sofa or out of plain view.

I believe this is the greatest country on earth. I believe in God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. If you ask me I will tell you the truth as I know it. No amount of money or business can change my mind. If you hold a gun to my head and tell me to change my mind I will tell you that...

To do this right you would need to have 2 people per night for 3 or 4 nights at 8 hours per night to strip floors and apply 3 coats of wax. We did an appliance store and start at 7:30 last night and my guys didn't finish till 6:00 in the morning and they stripped about 2,500 sf.

You can strip it off with a good wax stripper and a black pad just like you would strip Vct . The reason they waxed the floor is because the customer wanted a shinny floor so you will need to Diamond hone 200 grit up to about 3500 and 5x polish to a hard shine. I would charge about $1,000 and...

I've taken a class from Stu Rosen out of Newark and really enjoyed the class but I would like to take a few more classes because use it really keeps you fired up! Of all the things I do I definately like the stone honing and polishing. It sounds like you are ready to get to work and practice...

Haha

That is a sweet little 13" machine. What brand is that?

Beautiful work! I know you worked your butt off but it is so rewarding at the end of the job to see the great results! Great job.

I love to do business with innovators like you Rob! I'll wait .... Rob are you like a mad scientist that spends gobs of time down in the basement at the drawing table coming up with new designs and creating new things like Edison?

After reading and watching the positive video about the devastator lint filter I decided to order one but their website is terrible. I guess they don't really want to sell them from their website. Does anyone else sell the filter?

Rob, if I had known that you were going to be in Orlando I would have made the drive over from Tampa to shake your hand. The owner of the Janitors closet is a first class guy! I've known him since we were young when I would go by the Tampa location and buy stuff from his dad and Greg would be...

Everyone is right about not using acid on a stone floor because it will leave etch marks. I would use a small stainless steel brush as someone suggested on the grout and the white should come out. If not you can try to match it with sandless grout and cover over it.

I agree. 17" 175 rpm machine use a good chemical stripper, neutralize, good quality wax applied with a flat mop applicator system, scrub and re-wax as needed and strip as needed.

Wow, that turned out really nice! How high did you take the honing and what did you polish it with? Nice work!

Hey Rob, That is a really beautiful floor with a really high shine. Not sure but if you really need to know the name of the stone I'd bet that Stu Rosen at mb stone could Id it for you. It looks like it is in great shape, it actually looks like was just restored or very well maintained.

We will use green only in a few areas like where the chairs roll behind desk or something like that but if we need to do the whole area with a green pad I'd rather strip the floor but that's just one old guys opinion lol.

That is a nice machine! The water cooled engine should give years of great service and it's nice to have equipment with so much power you can really offer your customers the best possible results! Congratulations!

I don't believe this lady will reschedule. It just aggravates the heck out of me when this done and it leaves me without work for my employees. I am usually able to find something for them to do but not always and I guarantee 2 of my men 40 hours per week and 1 is part time.

We had a customer call and leave a message at 11:30 on a Saturday night cancelling a Monday morning job. It was actually a $1,000 travertine job which we were able to scramble and move another customer up but it still left us short a job for the week. Do you all take a deposit on large jobs?

I know I'm late to the party on this thread but I just read this and thought I might add to the information already given. Your comments are spot on and we strip new Vct before we wax as well. Insted of stripping the floor every 6 months if the floor is still in Good shape we will scrub the...

In my area every $1,000,000 home has travertine floors and showers and a lot of those homes have travertine around the pool area. I just pressure washed around the pool in a large house and honed it using 600 grit honing powder and it turned out chaulky so I did a test spot using an impregnator...

I would. On the next system I buy in the next 6 months it will have an auto reel on it.
