beginners. Brushes and/or pads are attached directly to the bottom of the
machine. Typically a red pad is used for daily scrubbing and a black pad is used
for stripping. Windsor products include:

Dual Speed
These floor machines are similar to the above units, but their higher
speeds — up to 300 rpm — make them better suited for spray buffing
and stripping. Since these units are dual-speed, the user can switch
between the higher (300 rpm) and lower rpm for scrubbing or stripping
and faster rpm for polishing. Windsor products include:

Ultra High Speed Burnishers
These machines range in size from 17” to 20” and rotate at 1000 to
more than 2,500 rpm. Ultra high speed burnishers are used to
increase shine and repair scratched floors on today’s floor finishes.
High speed machines employ the use of specially coated pads that
when spinning, “cut” the finish to create a smooth (shiny) surface.
This dry process is called “burnishing”. Because of this higher speed
and friction, they are able to produce the “wet look” many facility
managers prefer. High speed burnishers are available in cord electric, battery or
propane models. Some burnishers have built in dust control systems that are
able to contain the powder or dusting created by the high rpm’s of the machine.
