If you’re still using traditional floor pads on your buffer, it’s time to take a closer look at what they’re really doing—for your team, your floors, and your bottom line.
The Problem with Traditional Pads
On the surface, traditional pads for floor buffers may seem like the standard go-to for floor care. But behind the scenes, they come with a long list of drawbacks:
- They nest dirt, germs, and bacteria—and then spread that grime across your floors.
- Debris can get trapped in floor pads, scratching or damaging delicate finishes.
- Heat and friction are the main cleaning methods, which can dull or wear out flooring over time.
- Most pads require frequent washing, flipping, and replacement to maintain performance—and many users don’t do it consistently.
- Worn pads can expose the pad driver’s tufts, which can make direct contact with the floor and cause irreversible damage.
If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone. But there’s a smarter, more effective solution available—one that combines the deep-cleaning power of a brush with the ease of traditional pads for floor buffers.
