* Floor Polishing Pads Floor polishing pads are specialized cleaning tools used to enhance the shine and appearance of various floor surfaces. They are designed for use with floor machines, and their effectiveness largely depends on their construction, material, and intended application. Characteristics of Floor Polishing Pads 1. Material Composition Synthetic Fibers: Most polishing pads are made from a blend of synthetic materials like polyester and nylon, which provide durability and flexibility. Open Web Design: This design allows for better dirt pickup and easier cleaning of the pads, making them more efficient during use. 2. Types of Pads Polishing Pads: Typically white or tan, these pads are non-abrasive and ideal for achieving a high-gloss finish on floors without damaging the surface. They can be used dry or with a light mist of water. Buffing Pads: These pads are slightly more abrasive than polishing pads and are used to restore shine by removing scuffs and marks. Scrubbing Pads: Generally darker in color (like green or blue), these pads are more aggressive and suitable for cleaning heavily soiled floors. Stripping Pads: The most abrasive (often black), these pads are designed to remove old finishes and prepare floors for refinishing.
