What They Say About Us
ursource’s emphasis on the customer experience, its product knowledge, and focus on continuous process improvement has allowed our operational team to manage the “delivery” of service, rather than the “delivery” of supplies. Additionally, ursource was instrumental in the recommendation, trial, and implementation of our chemical management and microfiber technology systems. The implementation of these systems has improved both our operational and financial performance.
I have a few vendor options when it comes to equipment repairs and procurement in my region. The other equipment vendor in my area has been slow in responding and a little pricier. I am moving away from that vendor when I have equipment needs because of the level of service I receive from ursource. I wanted to send you some positive feedback and thank you for helping me run my business.
I’ve been working with ursource for 10 years now. This company will stop what they’re doing to help you. I’ve always been happy with the service.
In all my years you guys are the best vendor ever and I’ll definitely recommend you wherever I go.

Scrubbing, also known as deep scrubbing or top scrubbing, is the process of removing a couple top coats of floor finish that dirt has embedded into. A floor maintenance program that includes scrubbing and recoating will help prolong the need for floor stripping.
GOAL
to remove any embedded dirt and soil from the floors without having to strip.
RECOMMENDED
when the floor is no longer responding to burnishing and/or spray buffing.
Supplies Needed
1. Apply Cleaning Solution
Working with cold water, pour your cleaning chemical into a mop bucket. Use a wet mop to apply the solution liberally onto the floor to soften up the dirt and the top layer of floor finish. Allow the chemical to sit for about 5 minutes to soak.
2. Scrub Away the Dirt
Next, go over the softened area one time with an autoscrubber or low speed floor machine using a cleaning floor pad. This will break the dirt free from the surface of the floor finish without removing all of the finish from the floor. The floor pad will scratch the surface which allows a fresh coat of finish to adhere to the floor properly.
3. Clean Up & Recoating
After you are finished scrubbing, use a wet/dry vacuum or autoscrubber to pick up the residue left behind from the floor. At this time the floor may look a little dull but it will still have its base coat of finish in tact. There should not be any scratches, heel marks, or cleaning residue left over when done. If the floor is clean, proceed to reapplying new coats of floor finish to add shine and protection to your floor.

Humidity can have a big impact on the drying and performance of a floor finish – especially during hot summer months. High humidity slows down the evaporation of water from the floor finish’s film. The results of this is a film that is soft, incompletely dry, and prone to scuffing. This is because floor finish dries and hardens from the top surface inward towards the flooring. A floor finish which looks to be dry and feels dry to the touch can still be wet and soft close to the floor itself.
Adequate ventilation during and after applying a floor finish is very important!
Problems Caused by High Humidity
1. Excessive scuffing and black marking from traffic until finish dries hard.
2. Poor detergent and water resistance due to the delay in finish cross-linking.
3. The threat and reality of gluing furniture to the floor.
4. Streaking and mop drag created from the coat being applied biting into the preceding coats. This is caused by the applied coat re-emulsifying the previous coating that has not yet cured.
Combat high humidity:
If the air in the area being finished is high in humidity, close the windows and run the air conditioner to help lower the humidity. You can also use a surface prep pad to remove floor finish without the need for stripping chemicals.
Combat cold temperatures:
In the winter, turn up the heat to dry out the air and help warm the flooring. The general rule of thumb is that the floor is 10 degrees cooler than the ambient air temperature in the room. So a room heated to 65 degrees may not warm the floor enough to ensure proper film foundation of the finish.
Another important aspect in floor finish drying is the relationship with the solids of the finish. Higher solids finishes result in thicker films developing on the floor and that creates a greater period of drying time required between coats.

What is bleach?
Bleach is the common household name for a solution of sodium hypochlorite and water. Pure sodium hypochlorite is a water soluble, yellowish liquid that contains about 12% chlorine and is an extremely powerful oxidizing agent. It will corrode or destroy most metals, react with acids, peroxides, and many other chemicals to produce a toxic chlorine gas. It will dissolve paper, cloth, and many other organic materials.
The typical household strength for bleach is 5-6% chlorine. Even in this reduced capacity, bleach is a potent oxidizer and disinfectant with very high alkalinity. Caution must be used when working with bleach – even in a diluted forms. Fumes can produce severe irritation to the respiratory system. Skin contact can result in mild irritation to burns. Prolonged eye contact can cause permanent damage. Bleach contains NO cleaning agents.
What is quat?
Quat is the common name for quaternary ammonium chloride compounds. There are about 300 varieties of these compounds that provide varying anti-microbial efficacies. Quats are generally surfactants with cationic (positive) charges. Due to their surfactant structure, quats contribute cleaning power to their formulas. These products are low in both toxicity and corrosivity which makes them user-friendly and simple. These products are the choice disinfectant for most hospitals and health institutions.
Advantages & Disadvantages
Bleach
While the advantage of bleach is the inexpensiveness to use, it is greatly outweighed by disadvantages due to its hazardous nature to both health and the environment.

- Causes irritation to the eyes and nose
- Has no cleaning ingredients
- Dulls floor tiles and damages floor finish and grout
