Too many coats of acrylic finish on a floor
can cause certain problems. A continual build-up of acrylic
on the floor (10 or more coats) can:
- produce excessive difficulties in stripping in that several
applications of stripper may be necessary to remove all
finish coats. This is very labor intensive.
- produce a lamination, which has a tendency to rupture,
chip, or crack under foot. This is especially true with
ladies high heels. Shopping carts, dollies, and heavy items
dropped on the floor can cause chipping and unrepairable
indentations in the finish.
- discolor quicker due to trapped aged coats which will
generally darken through time.
The use of a mop-on restorer on a regular basis, as opposed
to recoating, would prevent all of the above. |
