Instruction manual
1
Before using a new laminate flooring, it is necessary to clean it of dirt, dust and construction debris. Take a brush and carefully sweep the floor, collecting all the large sawdust, shavings and other garbage.
2
Take a vacuum cleaner and pick up the nozzle. For cleaning the laminate, it is recommended to use special accessories designed for cleaning this particular type of flooring. As a rule, brushes of such nozzles are made of natural horsehair. Thanks to the qualities of this material, you can easily remove dust without scratching the floor.
3
Remove any adhering dirt and dust using special laminate cleaners recommended by the manufacturer. To do this, take a clean soft cloth and apply the chosen product to it. Wipe off contaminated areas thoroughly.
Glue stains remaining after installation can also be removed using a special solvent designed for laminated coatings.
You should be aware that when removing heavy contaminants from this type of flooring, it is strictly forbidden to use products containing acids, alkalis or other aggressive substances.
It is also unacceptable to use steam cleaners as exposure to steam can lead to delamination of the laminate.

Thanks to the special technology of the laminate, its upper layer initially repels dust. Therefore, dry cleaning is sufficient for daily care - just sweep or vacuum the coating. Such cleaning will help to preserve for a long time the film that protects the coating from damage and exposure to moisture and the sun.
5
You should know that washing the laminate is highly not recommended since excess moisture can cause irreparable damage to this material. All liquids on the floor must be removed immediately and the surface must be wiped dry immediately.
If it is not possible to avoid wet cleaning, wipe the laminate with a slightly damp cloth, and then wipe it dry.
6
Laminate manufacturers do not recommend the use of beeswax and varnishes when caring for this type of coating. These substances can destroy the protective water-repellent layer and, as a result, damage the material.
note
In case of violation of the operating conditions of the laminate flooring, laminate manufacturers, as a rule, refuse warranty.
