What happens here

After scraping, a flat floor scraper with a rubber or foam blade (or a large floor squeegee) is used to sweep and collect all the removed flakes into a pile, which is then scooped into the collection box. This ensures the floor is clean and free of any debris before the topcoat application. One person is seen using a blue-handled floor scraper to move the scraped flakes across the floor towards a collection point.

Goal: Thoroughly clean the floor of all loose flakes
