ENGINEERED HARDWOOD FLOOR CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Clean loose dirt and grit from the floor using a microfiber
dusting pad (such as available in the Bona floor care kit),
broom, or vacuum (without the beater bar activated and not
in motion). Use of Hand held Broom or vacuum with non-
mechanized dusting attachments is recommended for
cleaning Smooth , beveled edge, and Hand Scraped floors.
Immediately wipe up food or liquid spills with a soft damp
cloth. For cleaning use only an approved product designed for
cleaning hardwood floors (such as Bona Hardwood Floor
Cleaner with a microfiber or terry cloth cleaning pad).
Do not use a wet mop, steam cleaner, steam mop Swiffer
style dust mop or spray applicator to clean your flooring.
Never allow the floor to become flooded or allow cleaner to
be applied directly to the flooring surface during the cleaning
process.
Apply Bona Hardwood Flooring Cleaner (available at most
flooring centers) or similar industry recommended hardwood
flooring cleaner designed specifically for prefinished
hardwood flooring directly to a Microfiber or Terry Cloth Mop
Applicator in order to lightly dampen the cloth applicator and
proceed to clean the hardwood flooring in sections,
(approximately 4 ft. X 4 ft. areas) in sequence until the total
flooring surface is cleaned. For best results, a dry white towel
should be used to towel dry each section before proceeding
to the next area.
Never apply wax shine treatments, floor polish, furniture
polish, dust treatments, ammonia, window cleaners, oil
soaps, citrus based cleaners, or any cleaners not specifically
designed to clean hardwood flooring to your hardwood floor.
Keep all pet’s nails trimmed.
Pet nails that are not properly trimmed and are allowed to
come into contact with the hardwood flooring can potentially
exert the equivalent of several thousand pounds per square
inch of direct pressure to the flooring surface. This intense
pressure may scar or scratch the wear surface and
permanently indent the underlying hardwood layer.
Use plywood or Masonite to protect the flooring when rolling
heavy loads such as appliances, furniture dollies, or furniture
with attached wheels or legs across the flooring. Never drag
anything across the flooring. Install proper floor felt
protectors, 1" in diameter or larger, on all points that contact
the flooring on all furniture and chairs. Avoid heavy impacts,
spiked high-heels, and rotational loads. Have a professional
repair any areas of the flooring that become damaged. Minor
damage to your hardwood floor can be repaired by using a
color fill putty stick or touch-up stain pen available at most
Home Centers. These products can be closely matched to the
color of your floor and, when properly used, provide
satisfactory results. Refer to the CFS Engineered Hardwood
