A small tradition
When we finish your floors, you go home with a Bona mop.
Every J & R customer gets the exact spray mop Rami trusts, a Bona Premium Spray Mop. It keeps the finish we laid down looking the way it did the day we left. The guide is free. The mop is for clients.
Referenced in Chapter 3 of the guide.
Included with every project
