No ones likes grungy scuff marks on their floors. If you are in the floor finishing market, here are three of my favorite high quality Triple S floor finishes that should help you find your flooring solutions. Each solution contains a Polymer Matrix Technology which refers to the innovation of a “polymer within a polymer” blending process.
Matrix Floor Finish
By using a polymer matrix technology based formula – Alpha 17 is optimized for gloss and durability at a reasonable economical price point. Easy to apply, low odor and low maintenance. It is recommended to apply three or more even medium coats after removing all old floor finish with a SSS stripper.
For burnishing:
1. For 175 – 300 RPM spray buffing, use SSS Stargate RTU Spray Buff and a red pad.
2. For 1500 RPM spray buffing, use SSS Stargate RTU spray buff and a SSS Red 40-D pad.
3. For 1500 – 300 RPM battery/cord electric dry burnishing, use a SSS UHS 100-D pad.
For re-coating, clean floor thoroughly, dry mop and scrub with a solution of SSS Blue Thunder cleaner. Rinse well and let dry. Apply two or more coats of Alpha 17. Click here to order online.

Matrix Ultra High Solids (UHS) System Finish
Matrix Ultra coating is an excellent floor care solution that provides the highest level of gloss and protection in the fewest number of coats. This system requires two or more even medium coats. Let the coating dry completely before applying a second layer, estimated time is roughly 30 minutes. To maintain the floor, dust mop or sweep daily.
When it comes to buffing:

2. For 1500 – 3000 RPM battery/cord electric dry burnishing, use a SSS UHS Natural poly pad.
With this floor finishing system, it’s recommended to restore gloss once a week depending on the foot traffic. In order to restore shine, apply the SSS Meteor Restorer with a mop or auto scrubber. Allow to dry and then burnish with a SSS UHS Natural Poly pad.
