We’ve all seen it – floor discoloration – faded areas, yellowing, staining. It’s just plain ugly. And worse, whether it’s caused by dirt and grime or not, that’s what it’s attributed to.
So, what causes floor discoloration? There are a lot of answers.
- Prolonged exposure to sunlight
- Aging of old acrylic or wax finished
- Use of improper cleaning substances
- Insufficient cleaning and poor maintenance
- Cleanser residue
- Improper finishing
- Incorrect use of scrubbing and buffing machines
- Chemical reactions
More than anything else, the main cause of floor discoloration, today, is old flooring. While some discolored floors can be refinished to look better, the process is not perfect and needs to be repeated regularly to keep the floors looking nice. And, there are some discolored floors that just can’t be fixed.
V-8 Floors – Non-Yellowing
Why not replace that old, discolored flooring with a beautiful V-8 High Performance Floor? Our Hybrid XT resinous floor coating systems are non-yellowing, contain no volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and are UV Resistant. Choose from a smooth, shiny, reflective surface or a textured finish that provides added traction and slip resistance. Either way, there are hundreds of colors and decorative styles to choose from. Most V-8 High Performance Floors are ready to walk on in a matter of hours, and unlike mma and other coatings on the market, floor discoloration is not an issue.
V-8 Floors – Easy to Clean
Because so many flooring discoloration issues have to do with improper cleaning, V-8 has gone above and beyond to develop flooring systems that are easy to clean. Whether you choose a V-8 Hybrid Floor Coating, the 6.0 High Performance Epoxy System, or Rev M.V.P., our floors have no grout lines, seams, or grooves where dirt and germs can collect. The recommended cleaning process for V-8 floors is simple daily sweeping and regular mopping with a solution of warm water and a mild detergent. While there is no scrubbing required, a scrubbing machine can be set to low speed and used with non-abrasive pads.
