Exclamation Sexy Floors

Has anyone heard of "Sexy Floors"? If anyone has used this product before, I am looking for some information of how to even apply this product. Any information would be helpful.

Thank you

Thank you
I usually apply it with a slow horizontal stroking motion.

Per the directions - start out slow, when it starts squeaking increase speed (if you are applying the product properly it should be making a squeaking or squealing sound)

Vibrations speed up the work. Be sure to have some sort of reciprocating device involved in the process at all times. And a well-oiled tool is a happy tool. Goes without saying.

"Heineman" eh? I'm more of a breast man myself, but I do like a nice azz.

I'm all for any floor you can make love to when you are finished.

Defines a beautiful floor in a whole new light.

One question though...Are these the slutty kind? I like my floors just a little on the trashy side if ya know what I mean.

Just make sure you don't go too fast and make a mess on your hands.

I think you quoted the wrong guy on that - Sparehair would properly have that issue

Either way, I've found it to be a problem when installing these types of floors. I don't like getting my hands all sticky and gooey.

I've installed quite a few, mostly in my college days. These guys are lying, it's really a 3 part deal.

First step: Preparation
-Pick up a tub of KY flooring lube and go ahead and spread that sparingly all over that floor. Note: Sparingly, that stuff gets pretty goofy pretty fast and before you know it you'll be sliding in and out of rooms you never knew you had.

Second step: Warm up
-Now you wanna grab a broom and do short quick strokes, back and forth, back and forth...all over that floor. This engages the chemicals.

Step three: Penetration

-You take the product in question and spread it all over the floor, this will initiate a chemical reaction. Then take your pants off and quickly run to the corners of each room and jam in the crevasses. This ensures an even spread. I personally like to leave my calling card right in the middle of the room, but hey, it's your preference...get creative!
