STONE FLOOR PROTECTOR
3M has recently announced a revolution in floor care with its new high- performance Scotchgard™ Floor Protector. Specifically designed for stone floors, the new finish delivers a highly durable shine with less labour and at a total lower cost than acrylic floor products. By reducing the
quantity of chemicals associated with traditional products, the new finish also provides a greener and user-friendly floor care solution.

German adhesives manufacturing company, STAUF, have been an innovative industry leader for six generations selling wood flooring adhesives. And, against this background, they now offer a selected range of finishes, oils and care products which are easy to use and give most reliable results.

finishes is very time and labour intensive,” commented Richard Jones, 3M’s Market Manager of Floor and Surface Care. “At 3M, we recognise that the true cost of floorcare is not what you pay for the materials, but what they can do for you in terms of increased performance and productivity. By reducing the periodic maintenance – burnishing, scrubbing, stripping and recoating – associated with acrylic products, our new Scotchgard™ Floor Protector can save you up to 60% on your annual floor care labour and chemicals costs, while prolonging the life of your floor.”
Compared to traditional acrylic finishes, which require four to eight coats on initial application,
Scotchgard™ Stone Floor Protector requires only two coats to produce a clean, safe, glossy floor that is less susceptible to scuffs, black marks, stains and scratches than conventional products. The finish lasts for up to a year with minimal maintenance. Not only is it six times more abrasion- resistant than acrylic finishes, it also resists water, stains and dirt so finished floors are easily cleaned by dusting and wet mopping. Burnishing is required once or twice a month depending on traffic levels, as opposed to several times a week with acrylic finishes. And, when it’s time to reapply, no stripping or deep scrubbing is required; the floor can simply be cleaned and recoated.
