Maintenance Precautions

Harsh cleaners and sealers can hurt terrazzo. Only materials that are neutral pH should be used when cleaning floors. Water-based sealers are most commonly recommended and utilized today. Following the instructions of the sealer manufacturer.

Cleaning Procedures

Neutral cleaners are designed to react only in solution with clean water, mixed in accordance with the manufacturer instructions, and allowed to remain on the floor surface for several minutes. This provides the necessary time for the grime-dissolving action to take place. Then rinse the dirt-laden solution from the surface by squeegee, vacuum, or mopping. Rinse with plenty of clean water. It is important to keep the floor wet during this entire cleaning process so the dirt and cleaning residue does not dry on the surface.
