So, you've done it! You have finally converted your concrete floor to a polished one and now it looks amazing. What are you forgetting? You see, although it had been known that concrete polished floors are made to last for a very long time, its longevity still depends on proper maintenance. If left bared without proper care, the quality would always surely fail.
Now the first step of maintenance that should be remembered in keeping your concrete polished floor strong is to make sure that it is sealed properly. Sealing the surface of the concrete, not only fills the gaps and cracks of the floor, it also helps prevent staining and keeps the concrete looking good for many years to come. You don't need to worry about the sealer affecting the color to be added later because it wont do any harm to it.
When you are already sure that you've got the sealing done, the next thing to do is to keep the polished floor clean all the time. Unlike most floor types, you are not required to put wax on concrete polished floor as often as the other floor styles require. However, there are floor polishes available that could help somehow in maintaining your concrete polished floor's condition. This helps in avoiding or risking slipping when wet situations.
By keeping your floor clean and dry, you are helping it in keeping that slip resistance attribute that everyone wants from a concrete polished floor. Contamination is one of the major contributor in making concrete polished floor slippery, so making sure your floor is free from contaminants will help greatly.
Although polishing your floor is not that required, it sure helps a lot in keeping its slip resistance feature. However, if your floor's polished type carries a low roughness quality, it would be best if you lessen the floor polish you put on it. The idea here is to know what will work best with your polished concrete floor. - 15252
