Laminate floating floors are in high demand for their affordable price and finish. However, they are very fragile. Therefore, their maintenance must be done correctly. Here are some tips to make your laminate floating floor shine.
1. Use a broom or a microfiber mop
The most frequent type of cleaning is done with a slightly damp microfiber mop. Be sure to wring out your mop well to avoid over-wetting your floor. If your floor is new, it’s best to clean it with hot water and you’ll only need a small amount.
2. To clean stubborn stains, use cleaning products.
If your floor has stubborn stains, you can use certain products to remove them. For example, you can use a mixture of water and black soap to remove stains from sugary foods or soda. For ink stains or those caused by friction with furniture, you can use an ink eraser.
For paint or glue stains, you should scrape the floor with a wooden or plastic spatula. If the stains persist, you can dab your floor with a cloth soaked in grease and then clean with soapy water. For grease stains, sprinkle them with talcum powder or flour. Wait an hour and dust off.
Finally, for stains of blood, vomit, urine or excrement, you can use a soft microfiber sponge or cloth with a mixture of soapy water and white vinegar.
It is important to never use overly aggressive cleaning products, such as bleach. These are better suited for hardwood floors and could damage your laminate floating floor.
3. Use a reviver to make your laminate floating floor shine
When you have finished cleaning your floor, you can use a reviver to make scratches disappear. Your floating floor will regain its shine. Reuse this product every 6 months to maintain your floor’s luster.
4. Protect your laminate floating floor against furniture
Furniture placed on your floor can scratch it. So be sure to put pads under each of their legs to protect your floor.
