Pledge Floor Care???

Post by Doogie »

So I know that Future no longer exists and that it is now Pledge Floor Care but which one can I buy that has the same affect as Future when it comes to gloss coats and it's usage for clear parts. The only thing I can ever find in any stores is Pledge Floor Care that is a cleaner.

This is what I have - probably 2 years or so I've had this.

Walmart, Target, K-Mart, Lowes...I can not find that product. I guess I'll have to order it on the interwebs. The only thing on the shelves around here in the DC area is Pledge Floor Care Cleaner, which comes in a very similar bottle. I'm not about to risk using that on builds. Thanks for the clarification. I was getting worried that the Floor Care Finish with Future was discontinued all together.

Maybe you can get it at the big "A"? Worth a try!

I have the same bottle as Lyle. Got it at the local hardware store.

I only tried it as a gloss coat on two builds (did em at the same time)....I did not like it one bit. Now, I just use it under decals, instead of micro-set.

It seems to be getting harder to find. I have heard, but not confirmed, that SC Johnson was going to discontinue the product.

Last year I found 4 bottles at Walmart and bought them all. Ha, and my wife calls me a hoarder!

if that is the case, I had better get another case or two. Right now, I use it primarily to "paint" canopies after masking to seal them. I did not get that much from coating them first

How much Future do you guys use??? I have had the same bottle for at least 10 years and I still am not yet half way thru it.
