How do I maintain the beauty of my UV floor?

Some practical tips for UV floors

- Avoid contact with dirt, sand, grit and substances such as oil or asphalt by placing carpets and   vinyl-back doormats at the front- and backdoor;
- Use floor protectors and furniture legs/wheels with a large ground surface to limit the impact of heavy objects;
- Maintain a relative indoor air humidity of between 40 and 60% all year round, in order to limit natural expansion and contraction of the wood;
- Avoid cutting and grooving in your flooring by sharp objects. If you have chairs with wheels, make sure they are made of soft rubber;
- Lamett floors have a hard, closed surface, so that you needn’t always clean it with a damp mop. Every once in a while will do. This way, you avoid lasting damage to your floor.

How should you clean your floor?

The first time:

- Remove all dirt and dust with a soft brush or vacuum cleaner with a soft parquet brush;
- Clean the floor with a dry dust cloth;
- Replace the dust cloth and clean again;
- Remove any remaining dirt with a parquet cleaner;
- Replace the dust cloth with a slightly damp cloth and clean again;
- If necessary, repeat the slightly damp cleaning process. 

Daily use: dry cleaning:

- Use a vacuum cleaner with a soft parquet brush or dry electrostatic dust cloths that attract dirt, dust and hair like a magnet.
- Work the floor cleaner lengthways along the panels, in an overlapping zigzag motion and with long strokes across the floor.

Intensive use: slightly damp cleaning.

- Wet cleaning is not recommended, because it can cause lasting damage to your floor. Clean your Lamett floor with a well wrung out cloth instead.
- Work the cloth lengthways along the panels, in a fluent zigzag motion across the floor, without applying pressure;
- Clean the surface thoroughly with a clean cloth (cotton/towelling) and remove any puddles immediately.
