Lamanator Plus

OK so I went and picked up the starter pack with the Deluxe. Found out it could be used on laminate, and gave it a try, very nice results! Sorry for my shoddy camera work.

Looks very good Paul, Was that a customer or your own floor?

Did you find the product easy to use?

It was my parents entry way. It was quite easy to use! I sprayed on the deep scrub and waited the 5 mins. When I came back it seemed dry, I'm not sure if it should be, and didn't feel comfortable scrubbing it dry with the orbot, so I sprayed on a little more then ran over it a few times using the beige pad. Used the MF mop to rinse (a few rinses to make sure) and then used the same MF mop to put on 2 coats (with 30 mins between coats).

That's it.

You can get a better sprayer @ HD either the $3 or $6 ones will do.   You will go thru less triggers with those sprayers and they won't leak or clog.  Carry an extra bottle with plain water, and every time you're done using the sprayers w/ the product rinse them out, this way it's always good to go for the next job.

On the MF i would use that pad w/ the kit for floors that are uneven(for the bad uneven ones that are still candidate for LP i would use the MF kit pads only for stripper to get on each pallet).  I would buy the rubbermaid MF mop kit @ HD which covers 2-3 times the size. They're blue and the pole is yellow.  Buy extra pads, they're $5-$7 US each.  I'd buy 3-5 pads, this way you don't have to rinse any pads, saves you time looks more professional too.

Also 2 coats is good, but 3 coats is best to give that extra kick.  I will always tell the client wait till the following day once it cures.  Go back and check on the floor, it will look even better.

I did a wood floor inspection today, we offer many different options for wood or laminate floors, the one we inspected today was a candidate for airborne free dust sanding that we also do.  That is full sanding w/out all the dust.  The Lamanator product was not a candidate for this floor.

PS...this post should belong in the new general discussion section, but i'm being nice.    8)

If you have any questions about this service, call me up.  Number is on the site.

Bill,

I also have the LP package that I bought through Jim England (along with carpet and mattress).  I have had limited experience with this, but the 2 that I have done did turn out great.  One was my own home and the other was a paid job.  That stuff does clog the sprayers though and the water trick is a good idea.

My business partner in my remodeling company has a wood floor that is in his opinion, past what LP can do for it.  The floor and the finish are aboiut 18 years old and has had some pretty heavy abuse and use (large dog, kids).  We also install wood and laminate flooring but we don't do any sanding.  I actually started my career back in '81 as a floor sander with my ex father in law and swore I would never do that again!  I was the edger guy - great for the back- kind of reminds me of it when I do stairs...ughh.

Anyway, my question was about the dust free full sand you are talking about.  Is that proprietary information, or is it something you can tell me more about?  I wouldn't mind trying it on his floor if there isn't too much equipment involved, to see if this is another service we can add or I can add to my cleaning biz.  If it sucks as bad as regular floor sanding though, I may just tell him we need to tear it out and put in new stuff ;D

Thanks.

Mike

Nice work!!  After shot has really nice shine!  On a side note, does anyone know if LP offers their solutions in gallon sizes?  I cant seem to find on their site.  Would be more practical.

Thanks for all the kind words folks...if you need anything just call 810-220-0055 to place your order.

 You guys get contractor pricing which is better than some of the websites out there that sell it directly to the do-it-yourselfer...just ask for Michelle and tell her Bob sent you!

also, if any of you have any technical questions, just email me at newbielink:mailto:bob@lamanatorplus.com [nonactive] or call me...

Have an awesome week.....
Keep On Cleanin...
