Floor polishing or stripping?

Question

Our common room tile floor has kind of a dirty/worn look to it (might be grout?), and it's not really being taken care of by mopping. we're looking for an industrial-type way to clean it. what is the difference between floor stripping and polishing (and the machines involved)? and what would be better for our purposes?

THANKS!

The process of stripping a floor is to remove all the build up wax that accumulates in time .

Polishing is to shine the wax that you apply to it , you can polish with a floor polisher every day if you wish to take scuff marks off and dust at the same time . I have always used paste wax when I polished my floors and stripped them down with Varsol

You can purchase a floor polisher that serves dual purpouse ,it comes with felt pads for polishing and scrubby pads for stripping.

You can also rent a machine for this type of job Home Depot rents them out.
