Eric,
Most of your standard waxes are insulators, so putting it over your floor 
will eliminate the floors grounding path.  There are waxes meant for ESD 
floors, but they require a LOT of maintenance and the grounding is 
variable with time.  Most ESD tiles that I know of need to be kept free of 
coverings and periodically cleaned with the vendors recommended cleaner.

Hi all,

Looking for some input on the maintenance that needs to be put into EDS 
flooring.  We have two types (conductive and dissipative) in our 
facility.  We measure on a monthly basis and find that we quickly get 
out of spec.

-What products are you using to clean the floors?
-Are you waxing the floors?  Is it a good idea to use wax? (we currently 
do not use wax)

Basically, what needs to be done to keep the floor clean, shinny and 
within specs?

thanks as usual for all your inputs!

Eric
