Floors can be categorized in two: wax finished and surface finished and each needs to be treated in a different manner. Apart from the regular cleaning that involves dust-mopping, sweeping and proper vacuuming, you should be aware of how to take care on their getting damaged accidently which can’t be avoided for ever. So you have to take warnish steam cleaner seriously.

Starting with the regular cleaning routine itself, never use water to clean the surface. It’s important to get instructions and recommendations of the floor manufacturer or the floor finish manufacturer, as the case be, to check the use of damp mops for cleaning, otherwise water can cause immediate irreparable damage to the protective coating and subsequently to the main floor.Once done, the floor would experience many negative side effects such as buckling and crowning, as well as the surface losing its color and shine. Recommended cleaners by the manufacturer should only be used, in stead of using dust and surface cleaners that are often found in most of the homes. If the latter is unknown, use a generic hardwood floor cleaner that’s designed for the type of floor finish you have.

You should not delay taking action against any stains caused by ink or pets. You would almost always have to use a very fine or fine steel wool to take off the finish away (wax or polyurethane) before you can reach the contamination.

It’s good idea to use Oreck floor scrubber besides regular equipment. Use the specified wood floor cleaner along with a bit of mineral spirits to get rid of the stain, give sometime for the area to get dried up and then apply wax before finally buffing it.
