Application
The Statguard Dissipative Neutral Floor Cleaner is
more aggressive than using a damp mop with a diluted
finish and water and does reduce the gloss down as
it cleans the surface. Heavy to moderate traffic floors
can be cleaned once a week. Light traffic floors can be
cleaned 2 to 3 times a month or as needed.
