10、rawn. This Part of this standard is one of a series of Parts of BS 6263 for care and maintenance of floor surfaces, formerly CP 209. In accordance with BSI policy, in which all new and revised codes of practice are to be published with a number in the BS series, this Part of this standard was design
11、ated BS 6263-2 when it was first published in 1982. The first Part of the series, CP 209-1, deals with methods of providing polished finish to wooden flooring using the following: a) waxed finishes without prior sealing; b) treatment with seals; c) treatment with oils. Suitable flooring treatments f
12、or a variety of types of building are also given. When CP 209-1 is revised it will be renumbered BS 6263-1. This Part of BS 6263 gives recommendations for the care and maintenance of the range of sheet and tile flooring materials covered by BS 8203, i.e. cork, linoleum, plastics and rubber. Recommen
13、dations are given for the treatment of flooring in particular environments and types of building. Advice on the maintenance of static-controlled and electrically conductive flooring is also given. The principal change from the previous edition is that this Part of this standard now covers recommenda
14、tions for textured flooring. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summary of p

39、 and their use 3.1 Water-based materials 3.1.1 Cleaners Water-based cleaners are divided into three broad classes of detergents: neutral detergents, mildly alkaline detergents and strongly alkaline detergents. They have the advantage over soap and soap powders that they do not form a scum with hard
40、water. Neutral and mildly alkaline detergents have a mild action and aqueous solutions should be applied by mop for the removal of surface marks and soiling. Mildly alkaline detergents used essentially for cleaning usually contain soluble alkaline salts such as carbonates, phosphates but do not cont
41、ain metasilicates. Strongly alkaline detergents used essentially for stripping some types of old polish film contain metasilicates or caustic soda. Solutions containing ammonia or an amine can be used to remove metallized polish films. The solution should be applied to the flooring surface and allow
42、ed to remain in contact for several minutes to soften and dissolve the polish film. The surface should then be machine cleaned using an abrasive pad, thoroughly rinsed with clean water to remove any alkalinity and mopped dry. Residual alkali on the flooring surface can affect the adhesion of further
43、 applications of emulsion polish. It could cause loss of gloss and possible whitening and powdering of the polish film. Germicidal cleaners can be used for cleaning a flooring surface and disinfecting it at the same time. 3.1.2 Polishes Emulsion polishes are suitable for the initial treatment and ma
44、intenance of most of the types of flooring covered by this code (see clause 5). They should be applied as a thin coat by mop or applicator and allowed to dry before being exposed to traffic or the application of a second coat. Dry-bright emulsion polish will not normally require machine buffing at t
45、he time of initial application. 3.1.3 Seals Water-based seals may be used on worn or porous floorings before top dressing with an emulsion polish. They should be applied by mop or applicator and allowed to dry. 3.2 Solvent-based materials 3.2.1 Strippers Solvent-based wax removers are used for the r
46、emoval of film deposited from solvent-based polishes. They should be applied sparingly by mop and be allowed to remain in contact for several minutes to soften the wax film before removal using a machine fitted with a synthetic fibre web pad. The stripping of solvent-based polishes should be avoided
47、 if at all possible. 3.2.2 Cleaners Solvent-based liquid cleaners are used for the removal of excessive dirt deposits on solvent-based polishes. This can be achieved by damp mopping or light scrubbing. 3.2.3 Polishes The use of solvent-based polishes is confined to the maintenance of cork, cork carp
48、et and linoleum to which they should be applied thinly and evenly by mop or applicator, allowed to dry and then dry burnished. Paste solvent-based polish, with its higher solids content, is recommended for the initial treatment of porous floorings. Solvent-based polishes may be applied directly to l
49、inoleum. 3.2.4 Seals Solvent-based seals are mainly used on untreated cork tiles and cork carpet. They should be applied thinly and evenly to the flooring surface and allowed to dry thoroughly. The surface should be dry burnished with a fine-grade fibre web pad and the dust removed before the application of the final finish. Emulsion polishes may be used over these seals. NOTEOleoresinous or plastics seals that are damaged may require removal by sanding before retreatment. 3.3 Equipment 3.3.1 General Floor cleaning machines should comply with BS 5415-1 and BS 5415-2. 3.3.2 Fibre
