With a productivity rate of 30,000 square feet per hour, this machine is a massive labor saver. The Big Bertha has a 30 inch wide path, 270 pounds of scrubbing pressure, and a 17 hp Kawasaki engine powering triple counter-rotating brushes that can easily remove multiple layers of finish in one pass. There’s only one way to tackle this problem…with the Betco Big Bertha propane stripping machine & Betco Extreme stripper! The high school building is about 15 years old and the floors have never been stripped, instead each year just scrubbed and recoated, so it was definitely overdue.
Working with and training the custodial staff at a rural school district in southern Ohio this morning, we were faced with the arduous task of removing years and years of floor finish, possibly 20 coats.
