      Did it haze up or anything after the first cleaner like a week later or whatever? I had to buy the polisher remover and scrub and remove everything in the floor but I believe it was my mistake I used my steam mop to clean the floor a few years back and it got hazy. I know now you aren’t supposed to use steam to clean laminate floor planks.

      Laminate doesn't absorb the Polish like wood flooring. Basically, the Polish is just sitting there. It will look nice untouched, but the second you walk on it....The polish will immediately start coming off.

    I live in a 60 year old home and the great room (kitchen/dinning/living rooms) has the original brick look laminate floor that no matter what I used (including my steam mop) ALWAYS looked like I had not mopped in DECADES. I bought the Bona floor cleaner and polish and put the cleaner in a spray bottle and used my steam mop and that alone made a MAJOR difference....then I used my flat dry mop to apply the polish. So far I have only done the kitchen area (I am doing a month long fall pre-winter close up clean to the entire house---with covid I want to make sure whole house is clean and germ free before closing all doors and windows for the winter) and sitting in my recliner glancing at the kitchen to see if the polish was dry yet and after 1.5 hours was getting frustrated....finally got up and went to check on it and ran my fingers along the quitting edge and it was DRY....the difference between the done and undone floor is the difference between putting a new brick against an old uncleaned brick wall....can't wait for my landlord to see the difference the next time she is here

    We've been using this on our laminate floor which is only 2years old. It doesn't bring back the glossy sheen to the floor after we clean the floor first and then apply this. The sheen still isn't restored by this product. The surface is still dull. The floor still needs to be cleaned regularly and this wax product builds up time after time.

    I really want to do this but Im afraid to. My 8 year old laminate has a dullness to it. Ive used only water in small amounts to clean it. When I rub a spot, the dullness comes off. I have a dog and I have to wet mop occasionally! Im kicking myself for installing laminate instead of tile.

    • @danielatouch7498
      @danielatouch7498 3 роки тому

      You can use a disinfectant cleaner on it. Just add a small amount to a bucket of water and go over it a second time with just a damp mop using plain hot water (or cloth if you're doing it by hand). I clean houses on the side and I haven't had any problems. I just moved and all the floors are older laminate. My husband was saying he wants to polyurethane them, but in the meantime I'm going to keep them polished.

      Thank you for the quick reply. Parents just bought a condo with laminate floors, needs a good polish however. The floors are in good shape except for one section with a 12 inch scratch on the laminate, is there anyway to buff or polish it out? Or do I have to replace that section of laminate?

      hardkore71 Hi, check out the DAP Blend Sticks. Also Rejuvenate has a couple products to repair scratched floors. If you try them, let me know what you think.

      @FIXITHomeImprovementChannel  9 років тому

      Doris Glenn Hi, I have never tried ZEP polish, but I do like some of their other products. They have a line of commercial cleaners that are rated very high. I would think it will do a good job. Yes you can get Bona at Lowes, if they don't have the polish, they can order it for you.

      FIX IT Home Improvement Channel DO NOT buy the Zep laminate floor restorer, we had a bad experience with it leaving weird shiny streaks all over our laminate floor that will not come out , even putting several coats, it looks awful...thankfully most of our laminate floor is covered by a big oriental rug and furniture so you cant see the un cleanable mess it left...yeah once its on the floor, you arent getting it off

    Everything I've read says not to use polish on laminate.

    • @FIXITHomeImprovementChannel
      @FIXITHomeImprovementChannel  Рік тому

      Hi, always follow the maintenance instructions for your flooring, but for older laminate flooring with a worn top layer a polish like this does a good job.

    • @FIXITHomeImprovementChannel
      @FIXITHomeImprovementChannel  8 років тому

      Hi, I spoke to Bona and this is the product they recommend for your floor. Because it is glossy, new scratches may show, but old scratches should be covered. Let me know how it works for you.

    CANNOT wrap my mind around washing the filthy mop in the KITCHEN SINK!! that is SO revolting, disgusting, and unsanitary. With everything we step on, to even THINK of it going into an area where utensils and dishes are is absolutely vomit inducing! I don't care how many times you bleach the sink, you don't mix floor gems with dish germs. Done!

    • @boomchicaboomboom
      @boomchicaboomboom 6 років тому +6

      Lmfao. A floor germ and a dish germ? A germ is a germ! Bleach will kill damn near anything! Unless you're not mixing your bleach solution right, letting the bleach solution go bad too often before using it, etc.
