Sports wood flooring is a common flooring material with a hard texture and strong wear resistance, making it very suitable for use in sports venues. However, over time, sports wood flooring also requires proper cleaning and maintenance to maintain its beauty and longevity. So, how to properly clean and maintain sports wood floors?
First of all, before cleaning, we need to remove all debris on the floor. Clean things up. Dust, sand, and other debris can be removed using a broom or vacuum cleaner. Making sure the floor surface is clean will prevent more damage during the cleaning process.
Next, use an appropriate wood floor cleaner and warm water to clean. Choose a cleaner specifically designed for wooden floors, and avoid using cleaners that contain acidic substances or are too strong to avoid damaging the surface of the wooden floor. Dilute the cleaner in warm water and use a mop to gently mop the floor surface. Be careful not to use too much water to clean the floor to prevent water from entering the gaps in the floor and causing deformation or rot.
After cleaning, use a clean mop or rag to dry the surface of the floor. Making sure the floor is thoroughly dry will prevent moisture from seeping into the interior of the wood floor, causing it to warp or mold.
In addition to regular cleaning, regular maintenance is also very important to extend the service life of sports wood floors. Waxing your floors regularly is a common maintenance method. Waxing creates a protective film that protects your floor from stains and wear. Choose a professional floor waxing product and follow the product instructions. First, remove the old wax layer, then apply a new wax layer as required, and finally use a polishing machine to polish the surface to restore the smoothness of the floor.
Also, avoid slamming heavy objects onto the floor surface. Although the wooden floor has a hard surface, it is still easily damaged by heavy objects. Therefore, when moving heavy objects, you should handle them with care or use mats or rubber pads on the floor surface to reduce impact.
In short, proper cleaning and maintenance can effectively extend the service life of sports wood flooring and maintain its beauty. Regular cleaning, wiping down with an appropriate detergent and warm water, followed by regular waxing and surface polishing, while avoiding slamming or dragging heavy objects, are all important steps in maintaining your sports wood flooring. With correct cleaning and maintenance, we can enjoy the comfort and beauty brought by long-lasting and durable sports wood flooring.
