Howdy.... wondering if folks have suggestions... the quick background:
My stage is covered in tempered hardboard, and is in ok shape (new about 6 years ago) - painted once each year with a fresh coat of PPG Breakthrough Wrought Iron Satin (after having paint specialists help us find a paint that wouldn't peel up) - it works wonderfully. BUT... even with only one coat a year, it has been getting progressively more and more shiny and slippery. Love the ability to dust-mop it (and damp mop it) with ease, but it's getting SO slick these days. Suggestions?
No, coking the floor is not a good solution. Again, we need to clean it a lot. And there are classes in there every day. So a quick dust mop each day is all there is time for. (No time to coke and remove coke on 3000sf each day.)
How about a really rough pad on a floor buffer, before the next annual re-coat? Or, priming the current finish, and recoating with Breakthrough? (We love the look, and ease of cleaning, and the first few years it wasn't too slick.)
Thoughts?
