Since there are different requirements for surface protection in the market, some standard systems have been arisen: Protect floor surface for subsequentworkings Especially with decorative floors such as power trowelled design screeds, terrazzo or self-leveling compounds a subsequent floor covering (floor protection) is recommended. Very often treated floors are covered too early or incorrectly. If a protected floor is covered/protected too early and the impregnation is not fully cured, collide coverings and overlapping areas can lead to visible pressure marks (lines). These marks, can usually only be removedwith greater expense if the floor was covered for a longer period of time. In the case of extreme pressure marks, the floor surface often has to be grinded/polished with a diamond cleaning pad or a fine diamond tool and the impregnation has to be applied again. Depending on material consumption and drying conditions, do not cover impregnated floor surfaces before 48, better 72 hours (under normal conditions; room temperature 20 ° C and good air circulation). Floor coverings must always be made of diffusion-open and non-bleeding material. The cover material must also not bleed if it comes into contact with water. In addition to color changes in the floor, the functional properties of the impregnation may also be reduced if the floor surface is not covered with suitable material. As suitable floor coverings diffusion-open fleeces or cardboards are suitable. For vapor-permeable fleeces, we recommend the HAMMERFEST products from Protect & Cover from Schorndorf (Germany) or similar. These have absolutely proven themselves and are also promoted by BG-Bau (DGUV certificate). Cleaning andMaintenance Correct cleaning and maintenance is an absolute must, primarily with decorative floors. Nevertheless, at industrial used areas, building owners or tenants usuallymake no great effort for cleaning andmaintenance. Basically, floor surfaces treated with OBTEGO are cleanedwith a dampmop. For large, free and industrial areas an auto-scrubber with clear water is mainly used. OBTEGO maintenance cleaners or OBTEGO basic cleaners can be used, to remove superficial soiling's more easily and faster. For more detailed information, please refer to our cleaning recommendations. Note: In the case of decorative floor surfaces, additional measures may be necessary to protect the floor from scratches (e.g. clean-off zones at entrances, felt pads on chairs and tables, etc.).
