How do you clean your resin floor?
Despite their wear-resistant character, resin floors are not completely scratch-resistant. Fortunately, with good maintenance, you can keep scratches to a minimum and significantly extend the lifespan.
How often maintenance is needed depends on the intensity of use. Do you notice that there is sand and other dirt on your floor? Then dry cleaning is wise. After all, sand and small stones can cause scratches when there is friction with the resin floor. It is also advisable to mop the floor once a week with a flat mop and water. Is water not sufficient for cleaning your resin floor? Then use a soap-free cleaning agent.
Suitable cleaning products for resin floors
Clean resin floors exclusively with pH-neutral cleaning products that are also soap-free. This is important because soap and oily cleaning agents leave a greasy layer on your floor. This not only creates a haze, but also attracts dirt.
Avoid all-purpose cleaner, soft soap and chlorine-containing cleaning agents when cleaning your resin floor. This can affect the top layer of the floor. Replace abrasives with a damp microfiber cloth to prevent scratches.
Do’s and don’ts for cleaning your resin floor
In addition to regular cleaning of the floor, there are a number of precautions to ensure that your resin floor remains beautiful for years:
- By placing a walk-off mat at the entrance, you keep most sand and dust particles outside and prevent scratches from occurring due to friction with the floor;
- Place protective caps under your furniture to prevent scratch formation. Additionally, try to lift your furniture instead of sliding it;
- Do you use a desk chair? Then purchase a transparent desk mat so that the swivel wheels have no chance to leave scratches.
