Fivextra® Plus Instructions

Fivextra® Plus is a no-wax UNIVERSAL medium acid compound for the polishing, hardening and protection of marble, travertine, polished limestone, and terrazzo.

Fivextra® Plus:
Eliminates grout haze on newly installed marble surfaces.
Polishes, hardens, and enhances the color of surfaces.
Does not reduce the gloss of new highly polished marble surfaces.

To apply Fivextra® Plus you will need: Fivextra® Plus compound and

1. IS-17, 200 RPM weighted floor buffer equipped with a water tank
2. Natural hair and white buffing pad
3. Wet vacuum cleaner, mop, bucket, wringer, floor squeegee
Note: Strip off all wax and sealers from the stone with Zoom or Strip & Go® and neutralize.

DIRECTIONS: Option I: WET POLISHING

1. Cover baseboard, carpet, etc., with protective plastic and/or tape
2. Wet marble surface. Sprinkle FIVEXTRA® PLUS powder on the floor (2oz./10 sq. ft.) over an area of about 25 Sq. Ft. at a time.
3. The FIVEXTRA® PLUS / water mixture should make a wet slurry. Buff the FIVEXTRA® PLUS mixture with a natural hair pad for 10-15 minutes.
4. Check the level of gloss with a squeegee. When the desired level of gloss is achieved, squeegee the FIVEXTRA® PLUS mixture to the adjacent area and repeat process. Add FIVEXTRA® PLUS and water as needed
5. Vacuum dry the FIVEXTRA® PLUS mixture. Flood rinse the polished area and buff again with the same pad without adding more FIVEXTRA® PLUS.
6. Vacuum-dry, damp mop and let dry
7. Buff polished area with a dry white pad.
 DIRECTIONS: Option II: Dry Polishing

Place two ounces of Fivextra® Plus on the floor and buff immediately with the natural hair pad until dry and polished.

To reduce pad friction, if any, spray a few drops of water during the polishing process.

To restore worn marble surfaces, grind the stone first then polish the marble with Fivextra® Plus as per instructions.
