Follow these tips for
care and cleaning of your vinyl.
Use non-staining mats on your vinyl floor.
Do not put rubber-backed, latex-backed or cocofiber mats on your floor
because they will stain or damage the surface.
Initial Care and Cleaning
Keep traffic light during the first 24 hours after installation so the
adhesive can dry properly. If your floor has been seamed, avoid stepping
on the seam sealer for 24 hours so it can dry undisturbed. Avoid
scrubbing or washing your floor for at least 3 days after installation.
Clean any adhesive residue with a clean, white cloth dampened with
mineral spirits.
* Caution: Mineral spirits, lighter fluid, painter's naphtha and
isopropyl alcohol are flammable liquids. Take all precautions listed on
the container.
Routine Cleaning
Occasionally damp mop the floor with the manufacturer's recommended
cleaner to remove dirt build-up. As a substitute, 2-3 capfuls of clear,
non-sudsy ammonia in one gallon of water may be used. Using more than
the recommended amount of cleaner may leave a dull film. See your
flooring retailer for more information.
