Wooden Flooring Maintenance 101
Cleaning Your Real Wood Floors
Cleaning regularly is one of the most efficient ways to keep your floors looking their best. Plus, it’s also the easiest part of any maintenance routine. For daily cleaning, we recommend dry methods, such as vacuuming. When necessary, you can also use a damp cloth or mop to wipe down the surfaces. Make sure not to use too much water though. Wipe any water spills dry immediately to avoid any negative effects on the flooring.

Using Lacquer Refreshers
If your floor is looking dull or has scratches, a lacquer refresher can give it a new life. While it isn’t the same as re-lacquering, it is a great way to maintain your floor in between. Refreshers increase gloss and shine, giving your floors the much-needed aesthetics.
Removing Stains
Stains can create long-lasting damage on your wooden floors. It is vital that you remove stains as soon as possible using water or a mild spray cleaner. Remember to give the affected floor surface enough time to dry. Avoid using harsh products on your floor or rubbing its surface too often or aggressively as this can affect its laquear.
Repairing Damage
On the occasion that your floor presents scratches or scrape marks, you can treat them with a lacquer refresher. If the scratches run deeper, using a touch-up lacquer first is necessary. Before applying any product, make sure the dent is dirt-free. You can do this by applying a spray cleaner and using a small brush.
