Mirage

It’s not an illusion! As a top quality, premium floor finish, Mirage leaves your floors with a deep, wet-look gloss long after they are dry. Mirage has been engineered for long wear in high traffic locations and initial wet-look gloss without burnishing. Mirage offers all the benefits of a dri-brite floor finish, plus superior ultra high-speed burnishing response.

The unique polymer has been complemented with a high gloss, all acrylic resin, imparting excellent flow and leveling characteristics, low foam and clarity. The radically different approach to the cross linking of polymers in Mirage reduces odor and prevents disturbing the underlying coats of finish, making the application of Mirage less sensitive to humid environments.

Mirage’s cross linking eliminates streaking and hazing while reducing mop drag that is present in other high solid floor finishes. The high solids content in Mirage means fewer coats to achieve maximum results. Reduced costs combined with excellent detergent resistance to repeat cleaning cycles yields a lower in use cost than most competitive products on the market.

When only the best will do, wet-look Mirage is the obvious choice!

Max Shine is an extremely durable product that resists chemical attacks, black heel marks and yellowing. It can withstand high traffic wear and the abrasiveness of high speed burnishing equipment so your floor shines bright and clear for a long, long time.

Foundation

Foundation is a water-based, acrylic sealer for added protection to resilient floors. Because of the new polymer technology, many floor finishes can be used without a sealer. However, there are many cases with new tiles and old flooring when a sealer will give you the following benefits:

1. Reduce the number of finish coats required.
2. Restore color to old, washed-out flooring.
3. Reduce costs by pre-filling the tile pores.
4. Increase the bonding ability of finish to tiles.

Foundation is a semi-permanent polymer seal that will resist light stripping, but can be stripped off when needed with a higher strength of stripping solution and coarse stripping pads.
