Heavy-Duty Cleanup
Cleaning up after a construction project or revamping older flooring may require an in-depth job. The experts at Murphy Oil Soap are a great source for help with hard-to-solve issues. During construction or renovation projects, floors should be protected from alcohol, acetone, chemicals, and oils and perspiration. And stains, marks and scratches can be removed easily from waxed floors using Murphy Oil Soap.
Daily Care
Caring for wood floors includes a routine for everyday care, according to the experts at Murphy Oil Soap. Vacuum or dustmop floors daily as dust can scratch wood surfaces; use mats or masonite panels to catch dirt in high-traffic areas; rugs or mats should be placed near the stove and sink in the kitchen; and use a humidifier and a dehumidifier in dry and humid months to prevent cracking.
Experts agree that wood floors should never become wet or soaked. Spills should be mopped immediately.
For regular care, wood flooring should be cleaned with a damp mop, and excess water should be wiped away with a soft cloth. Floors can be cleaned by following the label directions on Murphy Oil Soap.
