Scuff Marks
Scuff Marks

Black scuffs, smears or rubber marks seen on waxed floors typically caused by rubber souled shoes. Often seen on waxed vinyl, waxed ceramic, waxed marble, waxed terrazzo. This is generally ONLY seen on waxed surfaces. Good News – there is a specialty product solution that can take care of this for you.

ROOT CAUSE: Rubber souled shoes can leave a scuff mark. This is actually a part of the rubber material from the shoe.

ANSWER: These materials can typically be rubbed away using a tennis ball.

That said you can eliminate them entirely, but eliminating the use of wax, in favor of a durable hard coat such as MARBLELIFE VINYLGUARD offering a no-wax, no strip, no scuff, no buff surface

SOLUTION: Best solution is actually to place a tennis ball on the end of a broom stick so that you can rub or erase these marks while standing up.

OR

Eliminate the problem for ever, and capture a 30-40% total cost savings, but removing the wax, and having MARBLELIFE install VINYLGUARD. VinylGuard is a non-wax durable hard coat that will not scuff, requires no buffing to maintain a gloss finish, is so durable that typically one need only touch up any damage once per year. Instead of one’s floor looking good after application but then degrading quickly with foot traffic, one will see a consistent shine year round. The net result is generally a 30-40% cost savings over maintaining a wax surface, while eliminating stripping waste for a greener more cost effective solution.

We don’t wax our cars any more as they have chip resistant coatings, why hasn’t such technology reached floors? It has – MARBLELIFE VinylGuardTM.
