MICROFIBER – POLYESTER – REALLY?
Microfibers are measured in Deniers. Denier is the unit used for measuring the fineness of fabric. Microfiber is incredibly fine with a denier of approximately 0.01 to 0.02. Compare this against the denier of a single strand of silk at 8, or a human hair at 20! We would also caution you to we would also caution you to examine the denier of the microfiber your are using, as the market is flooded with product claiming to be microfiber and the denier is OVER 1.

Wyndham Grand Clearwater Beach
My Housekeeping team here at the Wyndham Grand Clearwater Beach recently had the opportunity to receive some marble floor cleaning & polishing training through Dave Thompson's Academy of Cleaning with the coordinated effort of our vendor John Pezey with Gem Supply.
I wanted to take a moment to personally thank Dave for the professionalism displayed along with the thorough knowledge of floor care training given to my Housekeeping Manager, (2) Floor Technicians, and myself. The documents reviewed in addition to on hands training was exactly what anyone would receive when looking for the certification needed for this precious marble stone upkeep.
We took photos of before and after along with a video of the steps involved to have on hand for any future references. We appreciate the detailed preparation before the training by John of explaining the equipment & tools required to get the job done correctly.
My sincere thank you to a job well done where I would recommend this training class to others looking to be able to do the work in house.
