STRIPPING: Dilute with hot water at 12 oz. per gallon. Apply solution liberally to floor surface. NOTE: Increasing solution strength will decrease stripping time. Allow to penetrate and soften finish, then scrub with stripping pad. Add more solution as necessary – do not let loosened finish dry on floor. Pick up with wet vac or mop. Rinse with clear water twice or with a neutralizing solution. Allow to dry completely before finishing.
