I just intalled new laminate flooring in my home and have heard contratonary advice on how to clean it any suggestions? Is water ok?
Steam mops work awesome on laminate. I don't think there's anything specific you need to do...it's pretty durable.
You can use soap and water but don't flood the floor a damp mop can be used and a quick wipe over with a dry mop (or towel placed on the floor and moved with the mop) to clear any dampness from the floor once a week will not harm the floor .In between the mop just sweep with a soft broom and wipe any stubborn marks with a cleaner and damp cloth
Use a spray bottle with just water on the fine mist setting, hold sprayer 4 feet from floor and spray a wide path ,then mop with clean heavy terry cloth towel ...this can be done just by putting the towel on the floor then mop head on top of towel.. tten is best and won't ruin the shine... FYI this is the old way of doing it...and the floors will last 20 years or more this way.
