Floor Stripping & Waxing
What is floor stripping & waxing?
Floor stripping and waxing is a floor-care process that removes old, dirty floor finish with a chemical stripper and applies new coats of protective finish (commonly called wax). 502 Star Cleaning Service provides floor stripping and waxing for VCT and other resilient floors in Louisville, KY businesses, schools and churches.
Over time, floor finish traps dirt and becomes dull and yellowed, and regular mopping can no longer restore it. Stripping removes those layers so fresh finish can be applied to a clean surface.
Between full strips, periodic scrub-and-recoat or buffing can extend the life of the finish. We'll recommend a maintenance schedule based on your traffic.
What's included in our floor stripping & waxing
Your exact checklist is confirmed when we quote, so you know what's covered before we start.
- Moving furniture and preparing the area
- Applying stripper and machine-scrubbing old finish
- Rinsing and neutralizing the floor
- Applying multiple coats of fresh floor finish
- Buffing or burnishing where appropriate
- Scrub-and-recoat maintenance between full strips
Good to know
- Stripping and waxing apply to resilient floors like VCT. Natural stone, hardwood and some luxury vinyl need different care — tell us your floor type.
- Areas must be closed to foot traffic until the finish cures, so we usually work after hours or on weekends.

Floor Stripping & Waxing FAQs
Common questions about floor stripping & waxing in Louisville, KY.
It depends on traffic and maintenance. Many facilities do a full strip periodically and scrub-and-recoat in between. We'll recommend a schedule after seeing your floors.
Many luxury vinyl products should not be stripped with standard chemicals. Check the manufacturer's care guidance and tell us the product so we can recommend the right approach.
Finish needs time to dry and cure between and after coats. We plan the work so the area is ready by your opening time.
