CARE & MAINTENANCE
Proper care, maintenance and installation play a key role in
the performance of Armstrong Flooring floors. Installation and
maintenance guidelines can be found on www.FloorExpert.com
or by calling 1-800-233-3823..
To keep the lasting shine and fresh feel of your investment for
as long as possible, we recommend that you:
Do
• Wipe up spills as soon as possible. Never use highly abrasive
scrubbing tools on any resilient floor.
• Wash occasionally with Armstrong
®
Flooring Once ’n Done
®
Resilient Floor Cleaner.
Don’t
• Use detergents, abrasive cleaners or “mop and shine”
products – they may leave a dull film on your floor.
• Use paste wax or solvent-based polishes.
• Use rolling casters as they can damage the floor.
• Use a beater bar when vacuuming because it can visibly
damage the floor surface.
• Use highly abrasive scrubbing tools.
Proactive protection for your floor
• When moving appliances or heavy furniture, lay a plywood
panel on your floor and “walk” the item across it. This
protects your floor from scuffing and tears.
• Use floor protectors on furniture to reduce indentation. As
a general rule, the heavier the item, the wider the floor
protector needed.
• Place a walk-off mat at outside entrances to reduce
the amount of dirt brought into your home. We do not
recommend the use of rubber- or latex-backed mats (except
where noted) because the chemical (antioxidant) they often
contain can permanently stain your floor. We suggest a non-
staining vinyl-backed mat or a woven rug that is colorfast.
• All Armstrong floor care products have been specifically
developed to care for Armstrong floors.
Immediately after installation
• Maintain a minimum room temperature between 65 and
85 degrees Fahrenheit for 48 hours before, during and
after installation is completed, then maintain temperatures
between 55°F (13°C) and 85°F (29°C) thereafter. Rigid Core
Vantage can be be installed in fully-enclosed three-season
rooms where the expected temperature range is 32°F (0°C)
to 100°F (38°C) after installation is complete.
• We recommend that you do not scrub or wash your floor for
five days.
