Scotch-Brite SPP17 Surface Preparation Pad, 17" Diameter, Maroon (Case of 10)

Product Description Prepares wood, vinyl tile, sheet vinyl, marble, terrazzo and concrete floors for finish applications. These environmentally preferable* pads require only neutral cleaner or water to effectively deep scrub and remove most floor finishes, leaving a clean surface ready for refinishing. The cleaning process is easy, and because there is no slippery residue from strippers, no stripper contact with skin and clothing, and no stripper clean up, the product helps enhance safety and productivity. *Environmentally Preferable Products are defined in the Instructions for Implementing Executive Order 13423, titled “Strengthening Federal Environmental, Energy, and Transportation Management” as products or services that have a lesser or reduced effect on human health and the environment when compared with competing products or services that serve the same purpose.

Nylon fibers are uniformly coated throughout the pad with high-quality resin and mineral abrasives. The pad is available in round and rectangular sizes and can be run on auto-scrubbers, swing machines, and rectangular floor machines. It is appropriate for use on a variety of finish-coated floorings, including wood, vinyl tile, sheet vinyl, marble, terrazzo, and concrete. In some applications, the pad can be used with a red backer pad for better conformability.Scotch-Brite™ Surface Preparation Pads are engineered to reduce chemical strippers and labor hours associated with preparing floor surfaces for refinishing. The 0.4 inch thick pad is designed to be used on both sides, typically providing 5,000 square feet of use per side in wet applications, for a total of 10,000 square feet.For more than a century, 3M has applied innovation and technology to improving our customers’ lives and supporting their business goals.
