Laminate
floor planks are extremely durable and carry various warranties for
wear, stain, and fade properties, depending on which product is
installed.
To
realize the full potential of your new laminate floor please follow
the recommendations below.
Do
not walk on your new laminate floor for 12 hours after installation.
24
hours after installation laminate floor may be cleaned with a slightly
damp mop or laminate floor spray cleaner.
Peaked
joints are normal and indicate the proper amount glue was used.
Once the moisture in the glue evaporates, the peaking
disappears, usually within 2 to 6 weeks.
Any
glue haze will disappear after a few moppings with clear water
or a mixture of vinegar and water.
Above recommendations are for glue
together floors only. Snap-lock floors may be enjoyed
immediately after installation.
Clean
felt protectors are essential to prevent your furniture from
scratching your laminate floor.
Hard
rubber casters or polyurethane casters are the best choice for
rolling furniture. Plastic or steel casters may scratch laminate floors.
Objects
falling and hitting the floor at a sharp angle may dent laminate floor.
Entry
mats are a great way to keep dirt and grit outside, and your new
laminate floor looking good inside.
Use
laminate floor spray cleaner for routine cleaning. Acetone or nail polish
remover may be used for stubborn spots.
Never
use soap and water to clean laminate floor.
Never
use wax or polish. Laminate floors stay shiny all by themselves.
Wrap
left over planks in plastic and store flat on the floor under a
bed or in a closet.
