TIPS FOR KEEPING YOUR VINYL AND LINOLEUM FLOOR LOOKING GREAT
- Keep your floors clean. Get the dirt off before it gets ground in, and your vinyl will last longer.
- Sweep frequently. It's a good idea to get in the habit of quickly running a soft broom across the kitchen floor every evening after you put the dishes in the dishwasher.
- Keep out dirt and chemicals with a doormat. A doormat helps keep out your vinyl floor's two greatest enemies: dirt and chemicals.
- Sweep or vacuum it every evening, and wipe up spills right away. To clean dirt that the broom or vacuum can't get, use a mop dampened with warm water.
- Use the right cleanser. Dampen a mop or sponge with the mixture, and rub the floor just enough to loosen the dirt. Try not to rub off the wax. Rinse with clean, cool water.
- Don't drench your vinyl. Water from an overly wet mop will work its way into the cracks, seams, and edges. Once the water is there it can destroy the glue bond that holds down the vinyl, causing it to come loose or corners to curl.
- Rinse well to remove all soap. Soap may get your floor clean, but soap scum leaves a film that actually collects dirt. Until your floor needs a serious cleaning, stick to damp mopping with just water. When you do need to wash the floor, use two mops one for washing and a second one just for rinsing.
- Protect your floor from the weight of heavy items (such as tables and refrigerators) that occupy permanent places in your kitchen can dent vinyl flooring. Prevent these dents by fitting your furniture with floor protectors, which you can find at hardware stores and home improvement centers.
- You will need a professional stripper, cleaner and sealer to get to the real dirt and to provide you with a real deep clean which is where we at Tile Cleaners ® come in. Try to maintain a healthy floor as much a possible and we can help you out with the rest!
