Initial floor cleaning can begin immediately for floating floor installations. For glue-down vinyl Duchateau floors, wait at least 7 days so the adhesive has time to fully cure before wet washing or scrubbing the floor. Protect floors from scratches and scuffing during furniture moves by using moving aids with felt bottoms or protecting the floor from rolling loads with plywood or Masonite. Permanent furnishings that move on a luxury vinyl floor should be fitted with high quality felt pads to protect against routine scrapes and scratches on the floor. Place door mats at all exterior entrances and sweep or dust mop regularly to lift damaging dirt and debris. Preventive care will improve the appearance and longevity of your Duchateau vinyl floor.
To ensure the floor cleaner and finish/polish you select is compatible with Duchateau LVT, test before full use. Contact Duchateau for specific maintenance product advice or call the floor care specialists at 1877FloorGuy. High gloss finishes are not recommended on natural wood look floors because they tend to show scratches and imperfections more and look less natural than low or no gloss floor polish.
