Choose the correct stripper, sealer, polish, cleaner and machine pad for each stage of a commercial floor-care program.

Match the pad size and machine speed, use it wet with a compatible stripper and pre-test sensitive stone or timber. |
| High-gloss commercial finishCreate a durable wet-look coating | Agar Tuff Gloss 5LHigh Gloss | Compatible vinyl, linoleum, sealed timber, sealed stone and other polishable hard floors. | Apply only to a clean, dry and compatible surface. Remove old residue first and allow every thin coat to dry fully. |

Always confirm floor compatibility, machine speed, pad grade, dilution, drying time and required personal protective equipment on the current product label, Product Data Sheet and Safety Data Sheet. Test an inconspicuous area before treating the full floor.
Commercial Floor Sealing & Polishing FAQs
Surface preparation, product selection, application and maintenance guidance for professional floor care.
Q. What is the difference between a floor stripper, sealer and polish?
A. A floor stripper such as Agar Ultrastrip removes worn coatings and residue. A sealer or basecoat protects or prepares a compatible porous surface. A polish or finish such as Agar Tuff Gloss, 3D Gloss or Duro forms the maintainable wear layer and determines the gloss.
Q. Do I need to strip a floor before applying new polish?
A. Strip the floor when the existing finish is heavily scratched, uneven, contaminated, yellowed or no longer responds to cleaning and buffing. New polish needs a clean, dry and compatible base. Remove stripper residue completely, rinse where directed and allow the floor to dry before applying any coating.
Q. Which commercial floor polish should I choose for a high-gloss finish?
A. Tuff Gloss suits compatible hard floors requiring a durable wet-look finish. 3D Gloss is designed for high-burnish commercial maintenance, while Duro covers compatible marble, terrazzo, slate, vinyl and timber floors. The right choice depends on the floor material, porosity, traffic and maintenance equipment.
Q. Can acrylic floor polish be used on ceramic or porcelain tiles?
A. Not automatically. Non-porous ceramic and porcelain tiles may not provide enough adhesion for acrylic finishes such as 3D Gloss or Duro. Check the product directions and pre-test a tile before coating the whole area. If the dry film peels during an adhesion test, do not continue with that finish.
Q. How many coats of floor sealer or polish are required?
A. There is no universal coat count. The product, floor porosity, existing finish and required gloss determine the system. Apply thin, even coats with a clean applicator and allow each coat to dry fully. Follow the current Product Data Sheet rather than using one coat schedule for every surface.
Q. How do I maintain polished floors without stripping them too often?
A. Remove grit regularly, use a finish-compatible cleaner such as Agar Autoscrub on sealed floors and address scuffs before they spread. Agar Spray Buff C can restore gloss on an existing polished finish when used with a compatible machine and pad.
Q. Which floor pad should I use for stripping, scrubbing or buffing?
A. Pad colour indicates aggressiveness, but the exact task also depends on the manufacturer and machine speed. A black pad is for aggressive wet stripping, a brown pad provides heavy-duty stripping, and a green pad is commonly used for heavy scrubbing and preparation. Browse the full buffing and scrubbing pad range and match the diameter to the machine.
Q. Where can Melbourne businesses buy commercial floor sealing and polishing products?
A. Janitorial Depot supplies commercial floor sealers, polish, strippers and machine pads from Cranbourne West, Victoria. Melbourne cleaning contractors and facilities can arrange local delivery or warehouse pickup, while customers across Victoria and interstate can order online with Australia-wide shipping. Heavy freight conditions vary by destination, so review the current shipping policy before ordering.
