Company specialising in the cleaning of vinyl floors
Vinyl cleaning
Very much in fashion these days, vinyl flooring appeals because of the look of wood floors and also because it is easy to lay. However, it is important to know how to clean these floors. XLG, a professional vinyl floor cleaning company for more than 20 years throughout Belgium, explains which steps to follow to avoid damaging your vinyl floor during its cleaning and maintenance.
How to carry out a vinyl floor cleaning
.
Simple everyday tools can help you perform an effective cleaning of your vinyl floor.
Cleaning vinyl immediately after installation
Immediately once you have completed the installation of your vinyl floor, you should avoid using any product to clean it, even products suitable for this type of floor. Simply clean your vinyl floor using a dry mop or hoover. You can also use a damp microfibre mop. A soft bristle broom can also do the trick.
Vinyl cleaning and daily maintenance
For the daily cleaning and maintenance of your vinyl floor, you should take care to avoid using certain products such as:
- Abrasive powders;
- Sponges
- Nail polish remover;
- Acetone;
- Chlorinated solvents
- Highly concentrated cleaners.
You should avoid using a steam cleaner repeatedly. Overuse of this appliance on this type of floor gradually takes away its shine. You should not apply varnish or wax to your vinyl floor; this could damage it. Oil, vinegar, urine and other acidic stains should be removed from the vinyl floor as soon as possible, as they can discolour the floor.
Vinyl floors are cleaned by means of a microfiber broom. This should be soaked in soapy water and then wrung out. You should avoid using detergents; use dishwashing liquid instead.
To remove stains from the vinyl floor, use a microfibre mop soaked in a mixture of water and white vinegar.
As for stains, there are several solutions that can help you remove them. You can use drops of lemon juice for tea, coffee or alcoholic drink stains. For shoe polish stains, white spirit is what you need. Other liquids can be used to remove certain stains.
