Question: I purchased the Bruce Park Ave. Exotic Walnut laminate flooring from you. It is beautiful and everyone loves it. What is the best way to clean the floor?

Answer: This answer comes straight from the Bruce/Armstrong web site. Most care and maintenance tips can be found on the manufacturer’s website. I hope this helps…..
PROTECT YOUR BEAUTIFUL NEW FLOOR
- Place a natural or colorfast mat at outside entrances to collect tracked-in dirt and absorb excess moisture.
- For added indentation resistance, use Armstrong felt floor protectors on chairs and other furniture. As a general rule of thumb, the heavier the item, the wider the floor protector should be.
- You may purchase Armstrong floor care products and floor protectors at your local flooring retailer.
ROUTINE CARE
- Vacuum, use a dust mop or wipe with a damp cloth.
- For spills, just wipe up with a cloth or sponge.
- Do not use soap-based detergents or “mop and shine” products, as these may leave a dull film on your floor.
- Do not use abrasive cleaners, steel wool, or scouring powder, which can scratch you floor. And, in very sandy areas or at the beach, sweep or vacuum regularly.
- Do not wax or polish your floor.
- Laminate flooring, like other types of smooth floors, can become slippery when wet. Allow time for floor to dry after washing. Immediately wipe up wet areas from spills, foreign substances, or wet feet.
SPRING CLEANING
- Use a well-squeezed damp mop with Bruce Dura-Luster No-Wax Floor Cleaner. A light damp mop is all you need!
Thanks!
