1. POLOR PREMIUM PADS

  • Available sizes: from 7” to 27” (inches), thickness 1” (+/- 4 mm)
  • Pads are used to replace all type of brushes for cleaning or polishing surfaces. Floor pads, due to their flat shape and fibre base-structure, stick to Surface ensuring more thorough cleaning and polishing.
  • POLOR PREMIUM BLACK and BROWN pads are made of thick, abrasion resistant polyamide fibres (nylon), abrasives and synthetic resin adhesive, which is enhancing grinding efficiency. They are successfully used for general cleaning and grinding of all types of dirty hard flooring and removing the layers of protective polymer and wax-based floor coatings. Open structure of the pads enable absorbance of a large amount of dirty fluids, waxes and polymers collected with removed remains of stripped floor coatings. These pads combined with professional floor chemicals are mainly used for general wet cleaning.
  • POLOR PREMIUM BLUE, GREEN and RED pads are made with less amount of polyamide fibres, than in BLACK and BROWN pads and smaller amount of synthetic resin adhesive. Polyester fibres, used in these pads,  are a perfect solution  for daily maintenance. They can be also used for thorough and daily cleaning of easy-to-scratch surfaces such as: linoleum, rubber, PVC, acrylic and polyurethane flooring. BLACK and BROWN pads are not advised for those surfaces.
  • POLOR PREMIUM WHITE and NATURAL FIBRE pads are performed for polishing of protected with polymer or wax coating surfaces due to achieve better gloss effect. They are made of thin polyester and natural fibres, which make them perfect for polishing purposes. POLOR PREMIUM WHITE  pads are suitable for all range of Medium Speed Rotating machines up to 1200 rpm.  POLOR PREMIUM NATURAL FIBRE pads containing 30% of natural fibre, due to their exceptional resistance to high temperature, are remarkably suitable for all range of High Speed Rotating machines  ranged from 1200 to 3000 rpm.
  • During the cleaning and polishing process all types of pads are becoming naturally worn by friction. Therefore, when the thickness of the pad is lessened by 2/3 of volume,  it should be replaced. It will protect the pad holder and the flooring against damage.
  • After the cleaning/polishing job, if a machine operator decides that thickness of a pad allows to its further usage, it should be washed under running water or by high-pressure washer to avoid the dryness of accumulated dirt. Chemicals applied directly to the pad may help to dissolve hard to remove dirt.
  • In order to extend the life of  POLOR PREMIUM pads they need to be thoroughly washed and rinsed after every cleaning or polishing job.

2. POLOR DIAMOND PADS

  • Available sizes: from 12” to 27” (inches), thickness 1” (+/- 4 mm)

  • POLOR DIAMOND PADS are performed for cleaning, renovating and polishing of stoneware surfaces such as: of Marble, Granit, Concrete, Conglomerate, Terrazzo and Tiles. 

  • POLOR DIAMOND PADS abrasive layer is made of synthetic diamond powder hot-sprayed with resin adhesive

  • Grinding – abrasive grades: 50, 100, 200, 400 (perform a matt appearance to surfaces)     Polishing – abrasive grades: 800, 1500, 3000, 11000 (increases gloss of a surface respectively to higher grade of the DIAMOND pad).

  • Due to the pad’s structure, formed by a special synthetic adhesive, it may melt if is not cooled with water. Process of Grinding, Cleaning and Polishing is exclusively water-based. Water cools the adhesive and removes the dirt with grinding remains.

  • It is important to remove all grinding remains with a wet vacuum cleaner or the suction system of scrubber-drier, before moving to the next abrasive grade pad.

  • Grinding process should be maintained with exceptional accuracy to achieve the expected effect of renovated surface. Omitting next in order abrasive grade pad is not beneficial for the final effect of renovation procedure.

  • Polishing of a surface can be accomplished with or without water only prior to the full completion of a grinding process.

  • POLOR DIAMOND PADS can be used for renovation, improvement of appearance and ecologically friendly daily maintenance (without strong chemicals or with very little amount of them). Using chemicals do not make any negative influence on pads, except very strong acids e.g. hydrofluoric acid.

  • POLOR DIAMOND PADS with abrasive grade from 300-3000, can be used for a daily maintenance, depending on the level of smoothness of the surface. The most popular pad for this task is pad 800 due to the size of the diamond gridding powder (35 microns), which both perfectly remove the dirt and even (smooth) micro scratches of the surface.

  • For cleaning, renovating and polishing of stoneware flooring all range of scrubber-driers, or polishing Low Speed Rotating Machines 150-400 rpm can be used.

  • Due to synthetic resin adhesive used in production of POLOR DIAMOND PADS they cannot be used with High Speed Rotating Machines 1500-3000 rpm. They will melt and leave burn marks on a polishing surface during the work process.

  • Efficiency of POLOR DIAMOND PADS depends on such factors as: Type and Hardness of the Surface and Abrasiveness. Low abrasive grade pads e.g. (50, 100, 200) due to much heavier workload will wear significantly quicker than high abrasive grade pads e.g. 800, 1500, 3000, 11000. For average hardness flooring (e.g. Marble, Conglomerate, Terrazzo) estimated usage of pads may be as follows:

    • Abrasive grade 50, 100 –> from 50 to 300 m2 surface

    • Abrasive grade 200, 400 –> from 300 to 800 m2 surface

    • Abrasive grade 800, 1500, 3000, 11000 –> from 1000 to 20000 m2 surface

  • POLOR DIAMOND PADS can be washed under running water or by high-pressure washer.

  • After significant wear of the grinding layer, pad should be replaced due to losing its functional features by becoming worn out.

3. POLOR MELAMINE PADS

  • Available sizes: from 11” to 20” (inches), thickness 22 mm – 15 mm of melamine foam, 4 mm polyurethane foam and 3 mm polyester fibre.
  • Light grey Basotect foam, produced by BASF company and used for Melamine pads is awarded the International Certificate Öko-Tex Standard 100 conforming to a Health Friendly product.
  • POLOR MELAMINE PADS are perfect for thorough cleaning of micropore surfaces, such as stoneware and ceramic tiles.
  • There is no need for strong chemicals usage. Although for extremally dirty micropore surfaces specifically purposed chemicals can be used in order to speed up the cleaning process.
  • POLOR MELAMINE PADS should be thoroughly soaked with water before usage. Cleaning job should not be started with a dry pad due to its fragility in a dry state.
  • Before starting of a cleaning process all sharp elements should be removed from the surface in order to protect the melamine layer from damage. Also uneven areas, sticking out elements of the surface and deep holes should be avoided during cleaning with melamine pads.
  • POLOR MELAMINE PADS should be regularly washed under running water during the cleaning job and after its finish.
  • Unique structure of POLOR MELAMINE PADS, consisting of millions of microneedles penetrating a Surface makes the hardest dirt available to be removed. Although it has to be remembered that a strong resistance produced by usage of this pad, shorten the working time of battery machines. It is not advised using these pads with the low power machines e.g. 400 Watt.
