Expert Trade Techniques
The Dilution Ratio (Concentrate Guide):
Because No. 01 is a highly stable laboratory concentrate, a little goes a long way. Mix 1 to 2 ounces of concentrate into your master mop bucket or microfiber reservoir tank filled with warm water. Do not apply it raw to substrates.
Why the Alcohol Agent is Entirely Safe:
While we utilize 99% pure industrial alcohol in our compounding lab to ensure raw solution purity, once it is diluted into your mop water, it represents less than a fraction of a percent of the total mixture. It is completely safe for finished hardwoods, luxury vinyl (LVT), and sealed stone—delivering a streak-free flash dry without drying out or harming your floor's protective sealers.
The Pad Swap Protocol:
When clearing large residential tracks, swap out your microfiber mop pads frequently. Once a pad becomes saturated with lifted soil, it loses its capacity to absorb, which can cause micro-hazing tracking lines.
Grain-Line Agitation:
For deep-textured wood or composite planks, always work your mop path directly parallel with the natural wood grain lines to pull embedded environmental soils cleanly out of the grooves.

On-Site Troubleshooting (FAQ)
Q: Why am I seeing micro-streaking after it dries?
A: This almost always means there is a lingering heavy oil or soap residue left behind by old supermarket cleaners. Use No. 01 a few times consecutively to completely strip and purge that legacy buildup.
Q: Is this formulation safe for unsealed natural stone floors?
A: No. 01 is completely safe for sealed stone, tile, and wood. For completely unsealed, highly porous stone floor installations, we recommend utilizing our perfectly pH-neutral companion, No. 03 PureSurface.
Q: Do I need to rinse the floor with water after mopping?
A: Absolutely not. The formulation self-corrects and evaporates entirely clean. Rinsing with hard tap water will actually reintroduce dulling minerals back onto your pristine finish.
