• Protect your floors with throw rugs, doormats and floor D-fenders- they will prevent scratches and wear.
• Vacuum, dust mop or sweep regularly-grit and small rocks, especially where there is heavy traffic, may damage your wood floor finish.
• Occasionally use a damp cloth in a Bona Kemi cleaning solution diluted with warm water to remove spills, food or mud.
• Recoat your floor when the original finish is showing signs of wear but before it has worn down to the bare wood.
• Regulate the heating in your home to maintain more consistent moisture content in the wood flooring, which will prevent cracks.

DO NOT:

• Wax the bottom of chair legs or other furniture
• Use duct tape to protect your wood floors
• Use Murphy’s oil soap or any other oil soap
• Use paste wax or any other wax
• Use silicone based polishes
• Use Fantastic, Formula 409 or other solvent based cleaners
• Use Pine Sol
• Use Ammonia
• Use vinegar and water
