Have you recently installed bespoke
Camaro flooring within your home or office? If so, you are likely already aware that this is one of the most attractive and modern flooring solutions on the market today.
It is still important to keep these vinyl tiles in the best shape possible by adopting the proper maintenance techniques. How should this type of flooring be cleaned and are there any mistakes to avoid?
Common Cleaning Suggestions
This type of flooring should be cleaned on a regular basis in order to avoid more profound issues such as scratches or ground-in dirt. However, resist the temptation to use hot water.
Heat can affect the adhesive found on the back of vinyl tiles; causing them to loosen over time. It is instead much better to use lukewarm water and a mild detergent. Try to schedule cleanings on a specific day of the week so that they will not be forgotten.
What Type of Cleaner Should be Used?
The hard-wearing nature of this flooring signifies that a cleanser specifically designed for no-wax floors should be used. While water and detergent might be sufficient when mopping up superficial spills, you will need to utilise a chemical cleanser from time to time (depending upon the foot traffic associated with the room in question). Be sure to carefully read the directions and never use the cleanser in higher concentrations than are recommended.
Avoid Standing Water
Never allow water to pool when cleaning your flooring. This liquid could otherwise leak into the joints and impact the integrity of the underlying adhesive. Mop up any excess as soon as it is noticed and allow the floor to air dry.
Preserving the Shine of the Floor
No-wax vinyl flooring offers a lustrous and attractive surface. Still, you might want to add an extra layer of sheen from time to time. Always be sure to choose polishes which are specifically designed for this type of flooring and wipe away any excess after the top coat has been applied.
Following these simple cleaning and maintenance tips will ensure that you can enjoy years of use out of this flooring. If you have any other questions or if you are curious to learn more about the line of options provided by
