To maintain the integrity of a floor seal, use cleaning agents formulated for that specific floor type. Harsh, acidic, or highly alkaline cleaners can degrade the chemical barrier of a seal, leading to loss of protection and dulling of the finish. Maintenance programs should involve a combination of dry daily removal of abrasive soil and routine wet cleaning with manufacturer-recommended solutions. If the seal shows wear, professional re-coating should be scheduled to maintain the required performance standard.
