Instructions for the Maintenance
of Acid
Stained Concrete Floors

Floors by Faux Real are easy to care for. If you live in a dry, dusty climate, be aware that continual sand abrasion will scratch through our waxes and sealers. We strongly recommend a foot wiping mat at each entrance to your property. Particularly in commercial applications, you should go over the floors with a cotton-polyester dust mop once a day. Static electricity created by the mop head picks up sand and dust fairly well.

When the wax in traffic areas begins to look dull or scratched it is time to apply a new coating. In commercial

establishments you may want to wax every two weeks, at least until you have built up 6 coats or so. In a residence without dogs you may not need to wax for 3 or 4 months. The wax is easy to apply and dries in 30 minutes. However, it continues to cure and harden for three days. Therefore, heavy traffic should be avoided on new wax for this length of time.

Faux Real applied two coats of sealer and two coats of a high solids acrylic wax to most floors. Floors can be waxed by the homeowner when necessary according to written instructions which we provide to our clients.

NEVER USE AMMONIA OR BLEACH ON YOUR FLOORS!
It may turn the wax cloudy.

NEVER APPLY MASKING OR DUCT TAPE TO YOUR FLOORS!
When pulled up later, it can remove 3 or 4 coatings from your floor.
