Marmoleum® Click Cinch Loc has a strong, durable protective top layer – Top-
shield™2. This innovation from Forbo ensures a highly eective shield against
dirt and scu marks. Marmoleum® with Topshield™2 is ready for use immedi-
ately following installation and does not require the application of additional
protective coats of nish. With Topshield™2, your Marmoleum® oor will main-
tain its beautiful appearance with simple cleaning. Dry dusting is a fast and
easy way to keep your oor free from loose dirt. Remove spots with a mop or
cloth dampened with diluted Forbo Neutral pH Cleaner. Avoid excessive use
of water on the oor, and make sure chair and furniture
legs are covered with felt protectors. An entrance mat
will protect the oor from dirt.

Spots & Spills
The vast majority of spills can be cleaned o your Marmoleum® satisfactorily.
If there are spills or pet “accidents”:
1. Act quickly.
2. Scrape or blot as much as possible.
3. Mop the oor with a solution of Forbo Neutral pH Cleaner.
4. Damp mop with clean water.
5. If necessary, repeat steps 3 and 4. If the stain persists, as it may with glue,
varnish, paint, ink, tar, cosmetics, shoe polish, some wines, coee and
some other substances, you may need to allow the solution to sit or “dwell”
on the oor for several minutes. Rub the stained area with a green nylon
kitchen pad then rinse the area with clean water. Repeat if necessary.
If the stain persists, contact Forbo Product Support & Education Services
before trying any other procedures.
