Use rosin paper and cover installed flooring area to prevent damage from other trade work. Do not use plastic film
or any other type of non-breathing material.
Follow these simple steps to keep your Rigid Core Vinyl (SPC) flooring looking its best:
1. Although Rigid Core Vinyl (SPC) flooring is 100% waterproof, it is best practice to clean up spills
immediately. Routinely vacuum, sweep and / or dust floors using standard cleaning equipment. DO NOT use
treated dust mops. For heavier duty cleaning, use a damp mop with clean water or a neutral pH-based cleaner.
DO NOT use harsh cleaners or chemicals on your flooring. Oil and petroleum based products can result in
surface staining. DO NOT use abrasive scrubbing tools nor vacuums with a beater bar. DO NOT use electric
brooms with hard plastic bottoms without padding.
2. Protect your floor surface. Close blinds or drapes during peak sunlight hours. Excessive heat and light will
subject flooring to fading effects and potential adverse effects. Place mats at all entrances to keep dirt and
debris out of space. Use non-staining, breathable mats. Rubber mats may discolor the floor. Use floor
protectors for furniture. Non-staining felt pads can be used provided they are changed on a regular basis to
prevent dirt, debris, and sand buildup. Wide, non-staining casters at least 2” in diameter or floor protectors
should be used on rolling furniture such as office chairs, dining chairs, arm chairs, etc. To prevent point loads
on heavy furniture, use non-staiing surface floor protectors. Do not use ball type castors as they can damage
the floor.
3. When moving heavy furniture or appliances, place a sheet of Masonite or plywood under the piece being
moved to distribute the weight and reduce denting or scratching. For light pieces, use a clean blanket or piece
of carpet face down under the piece to be moved.
4. Be aware of sharp edges as they can scratch and gouge your floor’s surface.
