South Jersey Building Services is now offering the 3M™ Scotchgard™ Protect & Shine Floor Protection System, a premium solution for Luxury Vinyl Tile (LVT), vinyl composition tile (VCT), sheet vinyl, linoleum, and rubber floors. This advanced floor care process delivers a durable, low-maintenance, high-gloss, and or moderate gloss finish that resists scratches, stains, black marks, and even damage from hand sanitizers.
Why floor protection matters
In medical facilities, schools, and high-traffic commercial spaces, floors take a beating. Without proper protection, they lose their shine quickly, develop wear patterns, and require costly, frequent maintenance. While LVT is often marketed as a “no-maintenance” flooring option, the reality is that its factory-applied finish wears down over time. Once that happens, the surface begins to hold more dirt, becomes more susceptible to scratches, and is harder to keep clean. A professional-grade protective system extends the life of your flooring and keeps your facility looking clean and welcoming year-round.
Flooring companies, when selling or promoting these products to contractors and facility managers, often downplay or even deny that LVT and similar surfaces still require ongoing care. The 3M™ Scotchgard™ Protect & Shine Floor Protection System is the ideal solution—providing a protective layer that maintains appearance, resists damage, and makes ongoing cleaning much easier. A professional-grade protective system extends the life of your flooring and keeps your facility looking clean and welcoming year-round.
What makes this system different
The 3M™ Scotchgard™ Protect & Shine system uses proprietary technology for superior soil resistance, gloss retention, and traction compared to standard finishes. Unlike traditional floor finishes, it does not require harsh stripping during reapplication. Instead of a messy, high-odor process, maintenance is as simple as a scrub and recoat—keeping downtime to a minimum and eliminating strong chemical smells. The system is zinc-free, low odor, and designed to reduce or even eliminate the need for burnishing—saving both time and chemical use.
Expert training for the best results
Members of our team have completed specialized 3M training on the proper application of this system, ensuring every project is performed to the manufacturer’s highest standards for quality and performance.
Real-world benefits
One of our recent projects involved a high-traffic medical building where floors required frequent maintenance to keep up appearances. After applying the 3M system, the facility saw noticeably improved shine, reduced scuffing, and fewer required touch-ups—saving both time and cost over the first few months. Staff members at the facility also shared that they noticed better traction and a brighter, more polished appearance throughout their space.
