OK this belongs here. I need to rant.
Ladies, and anyone else with the disgusting job of cleaning your kitchen floor (yeah Sin, your poll got me twisted on floors) do NOT use Future floor polish!
Jesus H Christ.... my floor is a fucked up disgusting mess because of this shit. We totally gutted and remodeled our kitchen. It's a beautiful modern masterpiece and we busted our ass putting that floor down.... in fact, I put the floor down because I wanted it done a certain way.
It's the nice retro looking black / white checked pattern. Well I wanted to protect my floor a little 'extra' because of the small space which makes a greater high traffic area and the dogs. Their feet and nails can do quite a bit of damage.
So I am using this shit good for nothing Future and all of a sudden my white squares are starting to look yellow. I look at the bottle of this shit and it says that I need to remove it every few applications with a SPECIFIC product made to remove it. ::bang::
Fuck. So I run out to the store in search of this. I went to 15 different stores in 4 different towns and not one person ever heard of this stuff.
I tried scrubbing with straight ammonia. Clorox. scrubbie pads. The works. Nada, zip, zilch. Not a friggin dent.
So the peeling is getting worse and I decide to call the company. There's a phone number on the bottle. I got a brand new unopened bottle of this shit in the house too. Well, they're pretty good! Took them 6 weeks but they sent a bottle of the remover. (big whoop. the bottle is small and I'm PRAYING it is enough)
So, I look at the instructions and fuck me. I am NOT doing this. I can't physically. The boyfriend actually volunteered! Yay! I need this shit off my floors before the holidays. I want to have a New Years party this year.
Anyway, guess what I need to mix with this crap? Yep you guessed it- Ammonia! ::bang::
I have to get scalding hot water, mix like 1⁄4 cup of that shit to 1 cup ammonia soak a rag and lay the rag on the floor - a rag like an old large towel. Let this sit for 15 mins and then SCRUB this shit off with a stiff brush! It is recommended to do this one area at a time as described instead of wetting the whole floor with the solutionor it can make the nasty caked on funk harder to remove! ::blink::
This is the procedure to remove this crap EVERY time you need to remove it! Fucking bullshit stuff. I'll never use it again! It was easier to put the floor in than to remove floor polish!
