Abstract:
A cleaning and restoration system (10) for floors (11) and other hard surfaces is disclosed. The system (10) has a cleaning head (12) which can be moved across a floor (11) or other hard surface. The cleaning head (12) impinges particulate media upon the floor (11) to remove soils and provide a slip-resistant surface. The media is entrained into the air by a pressure tank (18). The media is reclaimed in a classifier (17); and the dust, soils, and other undesirable materials are filtered in a dust collector (57). A compressor (20) and a vacuum blower (22), and the other components of the system are mounted on a truck (19). A method for utilizing the restoration system (10) is also disclosed.
