Don't forget your handy doodle bug! I also like to take along an old walk off mat to use in the area where we step off the floor.

RCLLC,
What is the charcoal fluid for?
Why the zip ties?
And last but not least, hehe, what is the splash guard for the floor machine?
Thanks,
Gene

i myself always bring a few extra strong black bags along just incase you are walking on areas where you are not refinishing.

Good point, I keep a couple of plastic runners sections like you would see at new homes in the van.

Yah there pretty good, or even carpet matting about 4 feet or so, that way the wet wheels on the floor machine when your moving from a tile area to a carpet area dont leave marks.

I use carpeted mats with rubber on back. 4'X5" and 3'X10'. They are nice to have as they also help dry wheels and shoes off. I picked up 5 four footers and 8 ten footers this week at a flea market for $50.00. They were seconds. I didn't care if they were two different colors , they still work and was lots cheaper than at retail stores.

Splash guards go around the floor machine to keep the chemicals from splashing,
