I don't own the fancy cleaning and extraction machine they are selling so I had to come up with my own solution for this solid hardwood floor.
So I used my Mytee sprayer and mixed the Squeaky Cleaner to spray the floor and then followed it with a mild Whittaker GLS scrub. I shortly found out it went easier and quicker with the Sebo with the added advantage that the Sebo would go under the kitchen cabinet kicks. The electric sprayer worked perfect for this.
I then rinsed the floor with cold water and 250 psi with my Mytee Bentley wand. Next I dried it using a couple of fans.
I divided the scrub and extraction into three areas and by the time I finished scrubbing and extracting the second area the first area was dry so I could move the fans to the second area.
Next I put on the refinish which you just drizzle on to the floor with a squeeze bottle and then apply it with a micro fiber finishing pad.
The job was just starting to kick on the first section when I left but I could tell it was a big improvement in the doggie scratches which was her complaint.
The material doesn't go super far and I might have used a little more than I expected.
Simple work with nice results. Most of us are a little on edge trying out a new method and product but I wouldn't hesitate to do another one again. And based on my results and the effort I would do the second one the same way again until I get enough of them to buy that machine.
The cleaning takes the longest to do but it was quite easy to do the way I did it.
