Floor Care: How Do I Love Thee (Buffer)? Let Me Count the Ways…
Can a contract cleaner love a buffer? It appears so if you are Ronnie Warner of Clean Rite Services, Clayton, N.C.
Warner started Clean Rite, a full-service cleaning firm, back in 1959.
The buffer Warner is so enamored with is Powr-Flite’s 17-inch Classic Metal Floor Machine with a 1.5 horsepower motor generating 175 rpm of cleaning power…and he’s got six of them.
“I love them because they are the smoothest [buffers] in the industry,” Warner says. “Anyone that’s used a buffer can appreciate that.”
Another loved feature is the safety interlock system, which prevents accidental start-ups.
Warner uses his Classics for scrubbing, stripping, polishing, and even sanding floors. “You just can’t find a more versatile machine,” he adds.
Warner also appreciates the dependability of his Classics. “There’s nothing cheap or plastic about these machines,” he says. “It’s all-metal construction, so it can hold up to all kinds of use, abuse, and situations.”
