This involves the removeal of the lane conditioner, then the screening of the lane, which is meant to scratch the finish, so the new finish will bond properly. Then the lanes are cleaned again, to remove any dust and finally the new coat of finish is applied. We start this procedure by doing a thorough cleaning of the lanes to remove all lane conditioner and dirt. We use a vacuum lane stripper to perform this task and we run this machine over every lane at least twice. We then screen each lane using a Progress Oscilatior to avoid having swirl marks show up on the lane when the new finish is applied. Should the approaches need recoating, we perform the same screening on them. Now it is time to clean the lanes in prepartation of applying the lane and approach finish. We start by cleaning the lanes and approaches with a dust mop, then we damp towel the lanes and approachs twice, and finally we use a tac cloth on the approaches. We then tape white wax paper at the foul line and apply the new top coat. Once the top coat is applied, we then coat the approaches. Check out our contact page, if you have any questions. We look forward to the opportunity to serve you!
