Use and Care Guide

5. Apply 3 to 5 coats of high-quality
commercial floor polish such as Armstrong
S-480 Commercial Floor Polish. The use of
a high-quality stain-resistant sealer such as
S-495 Commercial Floor Sealer beneath
the
polish should be considered in areas of high
traffic, high soil load and areas where
staining potential is high.
Special Considerations
FEATURE TILE: Feature Tile, like solid-colored floors of any composition, shows scratches and soiling
more readily than patterned materials. They have been designed for use as decorative bands, borders
and spot accent colors in combination with other Armstrong 1/8˝ Standard EXCELON® and EXCELON® Tile.
Feature Tile is not suitable for us as an overall floor color and is not recommended for this use. When first
installed, the plain-colored surface may reveal a light dusty or powdery film and some directional surface
markings. These are common to the production of this type of product, but the markings will be eliminated
with regular cleaning and polishing, and they will not affect the performance of the floor.
STONETEX®: Although Stonetex presents a monolithic or solid-colored image, the speckled pattern
enables it to look better longer than Feature Tile or other non-patterned vinyl composition tile. Stonetex may
require more frequent maintenance than a typical vinyl composition tile with a more prominent pattern.
