Floor Scrubbing - Cleaning of floors by use of deck brush, cylindrical or disc type machine, or automatic machine scrubber and detergent solution using as small amount of water as possible, followed by plain water rinse and pick-up. This scrubbing will be followed by the application of one coat of wax or finish and buffing.

e. Floor-Dry-Cleaning - Cleaning to remove marks, imbedded dirt and debris by buffing with steel wool disc or drum on machine having vacuum soil pick-up.

f. Touch-Up of Floor Surfaces - Application of wax or finish in heavy traffic areas between primary floor finishing. This includes thorough damp-mop cleaning of entire area prior to application of wax or floor finish and buffing entire area after application of wax or finish.

g. High Dusting - Removal of dust from walls, ceilings, and other structural components;

equipment and fixtures above six-foot reach from floor, with hand dusters or vacuum cleaner.

h. Vacuum Carpets – Vacuum all carpeted surfaces, inclusive of all offices and workstations.
