"How to Care For Your New Laminate Floor"

Protect the Floor

• Place a door mat at outside entrances to collect tracked-in dirt and absorb excess moisture.
• Place felt door protectors under furniture legs to prevent scratches and help maintain the beauty of the floor.

Regular Maintenance

• The surface layer of a laminate floor is hard and compact, so dirt and dust have a hard time sticking. Therefore, vacuuming and an an occasional wipe with a mop are usually all it takes to keep your floor clean. You do not have to wax or polish your laminate floor.

Cleaning Made Easy

• Vacuum (use vacuum without a beater bar) as needed or dust mop. If dust mopping, clean or shake off the cloth head when finished.
• Spot spray laminate floor cleaner on soiled areas. Do NOT use soap or detergents.
• Wipe the soiled area with a cloth mop.
• When the mop is soiled, remove cloth cover and wash in laundry.
• For difficult spots see the manufacturer's recommendations for removal.

CAUTION: Never clean your laminate floor with scouring powder, steel wool, or abrasive cleaners, such as Comet or Ajax! A laminate floor should never be sanded or waxed!
