HOW THE SYSTEM WORKS

Driving Hooks

Hookit II Gold Strips hooks up, gold abraisive down.

Note: Some rotary or orbital driving assemblies have longer hooks and may require two maroon pads.

Medallion Bremen Antique enhances a decor with warmth, beauty and elegance with a hint of contrast. The appearance of antique flooring makes a bold but yet warm and elegant statement for homeowners that prefer a naturally rich look in flooring. Changes in color variations are unique from board to board. Finishing methods enhance the natural age-related defects by using a low luster matte aluminum oxide coating.

Gold Strips Placement on Between Coats Maroon Pads

To save your fingers when hand-sanding edges and stairs, try folding an edger pad back in half and applying a gold strip.

180 Grit

GLITSA
HIGH PERFORMANCE
WATERBORNE FINISH

Cut a 12" x 18" Between Coats Pad to Fit a drywall pole sander and abrade perimeter and under toe-kick areas. Use gold strips if more abrasion is needed.

High Performance is the finish of choice for commercial applications and residential floors that experience high traffic. A two-component High Crosslink Density (HCD) waterborne finish, High Performance has unmatched strength and leaves floors with a crisp, clear finish.

Setting a new standard of durability for waterborne finishes, HP contains a polycarbonate resin that is used to create bulletproof windshields and puts high-impact strength in motorcycle helments. What's more, HP out-performs all major two-component finishes in independent laboratory taber abrasion testing. The perfect combination of beauty and durability, HP is available in two industry-standard gloss levels, matte and semi-gloss.

HP allows contractors the time needed to work multiple large areas and join them together without any signs of imperfection. For the first time using Glitsa HP contractors will know just how long the "open time" is and discover the most challenging jobs just got a whole lot easier. Glitsa calls it the "forgiveness factor." Contractors call it "a new level of workability."
