Wood Class

Wood-Solv to repair, refinish hard wood floors and laminate floors

In April, a well-attended all-day wood floor care and restoration class was conducted at the Bane-Clene Indianapolis training center by Don Terry, the Bane-Clene chemist, plus Peter Pasienza and Robert Shepard II of LamantorPlus™.

There is a shifting trend toward using more wood and laminate flooring in both residential and commercial installations. In the training class, the attendees learned how to restore and rejuvenate both wood floors and laminate floors without sanding. In this program, they learned :

  • How to review and evaluate flooring damage
  • What damage can be repaired and what cannot.
  • What floor conditions to avoid.
  • How to complete minor floor repairs.
  • How to properly use the Wood-Solv and the LamanatorPlus systems.
  • How to introduce and sell Wood-Solv and the LamanatorPlus system.
  • How to price out a floor opportunity.

Wood flooring is becoming increasingly popular. Some of your customers are even removing their carpets from their old hardwood floors (and then they cover them with rugs)! Why get all upset about this? Why not take advantage of this trend? Don’t let your competition get ahead of you!

Now, carpet pros can gain incremental sales from the growing trend of residential hardwood and laminate floors. Wood-Solv wood floor care and repair system features award-winning NO-SANDING technology that’s simple to use and fast drying. It is a turnkey system that includes training, selling materials and a broad product line. You could earn anywhere from $200 to $400 per room. It’s as easy as picking money up off the floor!
