In a bucket, dilute the Deep Cleaner in HOT water as HOT water is more effective. Using a sponge mop, apply to the floor surface. Do small sections (1.5m x5) of the floor at a time in order to maintain a more manageable removal and clean-up. Allow the Deep Cleaner solution to remain on the floor for a few minutes. CAUTION: Do not allow the solution to dry and re-adhere to the surface. If solution appears to be drying, add a little warm water to the surface wet. At the end of 5 minutes, agitate with our microfiber scrubber pad. Aggressive agitation and elbow grease are typically required to remove ground-in dirt and multiple layers of the finish. Once you have thoroughly deep cleaned the floor, rinse the area with clear, warm water and allow to dry. They you can proceed to the next 5×5 area and repeat steps.
