How Do You Remove Stains From Vinyl Flooring?
Thanks to the overall stain resistance capabilities of luxury vinyl, most spills and stains will wipe up quickly with a clean white cloth. When wiping up stains, turn the cloth frequently to prevent spreading the stain. Make sure to rinse with clean water and allow the area to dry.
How Do You Make Vinyl Floors Shiny Again?
To prevent your floors from fading or discoloring, make sure to follow these tips:
- Sweep regularly
- Always keep doormats at each entrance.
Proper maintenance will keep your floors shiny. For heavier cleaning, a manufacturer recommended cleaning solution can be used when mopping.
Can You Steam Vinyl Flooring?
It’s best to avoid cleaning luxury vinyl tile with a steam mop, as the steam and water can damage the planks and vinyl, causing your floor to warp and bend.
