polished concrete tampa Polished Concrete Flooring will not require the intensive maintenance needed with other popular floor choices but they will eventually lose their beautiful shine if they are not properly maintained. This is especially true with high traffic areas in commercial buildings The first step in maintaining polished concrete is to be proactive from the beginning and protect the floor with a topical guard or penetrating sealer. Professional cleaning services that specialize in maintaining and sealing concrete floors recommend using only natural-ph cleaners over cleaning products that are too acidic or contains too much alkaline that will dull the shine of the floor. You must also use very soft pads to clean the floors to avoid scratching the surfaces.

It is useful to pro vide a checklist for the process of maintaining beautiful polished concrete floors especially for high traffic areas

Dust mop the floor daily with a microfiber pad to keep dirt off the floor.
When wet mopping the floor, always use clean water and clean mops. It is best to use an automatic floor scrubber with a non-abrasive pad to clean large areas
When wet mopping, use a neutral floor cleaner formulated to suspend particles of dirt so they can be removed more efficiently. Using only water will leave much of the dirt on the floor and it will eventually cause abrasions and discolor the surface.
Clean spills and stains as quickly as possible so they wont be absorbed into the finish.
Give the cleaner time to break down dirt and grime and suspend the particles.If you rush this process you will not achieve your goals in cleaning the polished concrete floor.
Do not allow your cleaning solution to dry on the surface. Clean small areas to prevent this from happening and then move on to other areas.
