Stripping removes the worn layer of polish before the floor is prepared for fresh sealer and polish.
The source says sealing helps prevent dirt and grime settling into the vinyl’s pores and provides a suitable base for polish adhesion.
No. The source expressly states that existing floor damage will not be rectified. Tears, gouges, permanent discolouration and lost material may remain beneath a new finish.

Four specialised services to address every aspect of vinyl floor maintenance and restoration.
If your flooring has been looking dull and matte for a while, it may require extensive scrubbing. CleaningPro addresses dull, matte flooring using specialised chemicals without causing streaking or staining damage. Our professional-grade equipment deep-cleans your vinyl to restore its original appearance.
To protect the base of the floor, we seal the surface after stripping. This prevents dirt and grime from settling into the pores of vinyl. The sealer is applied post-stripping to provide superior polish adhesion and long-lasting protection for your floor.
Polishing is the critical final step that gives your floor a shiny, glossy look. We apply two coats of slip-resistant emulsion polish, creating a durable, high-gloss protective coating that enhances the beauty of your vinyl floor while keeping it safe to walk on.
