Choosing The Right Laminate Floor Cleaner

By Tom Boyce


Many people decide to purchase and fit laminate wood flooring as it is such a practical choice. Laminate flooring is less expensive than hard wood and easier to fit. It may also look very stylish and attractive, particularly when finished with 1 or 2 top quality area rugs. What's more it isn't important to wax or polish a laminate floor. The only thing that deters some consumers is they are not sure of the correct procedure for cleaning a laminate wood floor. The good news is that there are many laminate floor cleaners available for buying, and they can make the process fairly simple.





Your Trusty Vacuum Cleaner

The most important laminate floor cleaner is something many of us already own. You need to use your vacuum cleaner to wash up loose mud and grit in a fairly similar way you would with a carpet. However you may wish to use a soft brush attachment as the last thing you want to do is scrape the outer layer of your laminate floor. If you do not have a vacuum cleaner you need to use a sweeping brush to scrub your floor instead.





Added To Water

There are some laminate floor cleaners which are designed to be added to water. A few of the people are reluctant to utilize this sort of laminate floor cleaner. They're terrified that using water on their laminate floor will cause it to warp out of shape. You can use water on your laminate floor since it is superbly ok to get it damp as long as you don't soak it. Just be careful what type of mop you use on your laminate floor. It's not a good idea to utilize a normal cotton deck mop as these can retain plenty of water despite your best attempts to wring them out. It's better to utilise a sponge mop with a wringer since it is possible to get almost all of the water out of it before applying it to the floor.





Mist And Mop

Most laminate floor cleaners are made for use without the requirement for water. To utilize this sort of laminate floor cleaner you simply spray a mist of it onto the surface of your floor before wiping it up with a dry mop. You can use this type of laminate floor cleaner to get rid of a single stain between regular cleanings as well. Simply use a disposable hand towel to wipe up the stain rather than a dry mop.





What To Look For

Irrespective of which kind of laminate floor cleaner you use it is in your own interest to be certain that it meets certain criteria. Firstly you need to ensure that the cleaner you purchase has a nice smell since some products have a harsh chemical odor. You should also check the ingredients of a laminate floor cleaner to make sure they're not damaging. Similarly you'll need a product that does not lifeless your floor or leave any type of streaky remainder.
