Kahrs Flooring Maintenance and Cleaning

Maintenance silk matt and matt UV-lacquer

Place doormats inside and outside the front door to prevent wear of the wooden floors. Put protective pads on furniture to avoid unnecessary marks and scratches on the floor. In rooms where water is frequently spilt, it is recommended that you lacquer the floor again after laying which will seal the joints between the boards and will give better protection. Wood floors expand and contract with the changes in the indoor climate. Normal room temperature and relative humidity between 30-60% should be kept.

Kährs Lacquer Refresher can be applied with a soft clean cloth or polish applicator. If necessary, apply a second coat. Let it dry for nearly 30 min. before replacing the furniture. For domestic floors, 1-2 treatments per year are sufficient. A floor treated with Kährs Lacquer Refresher can be re-lacquered. Remove all Kährs Lacquer Refresher with the Kährs Remover, then sand the floor and finally relacquer it.

Cleaning Silk-matt and Matt UV-Lacquered Floors

Vacuum daily and only when necessary, damp-clean the floor with a well wrung-out mop. The floor must only become slightly damp so it can dry in a minute. For the best cleaning results, use Kährs Cleaner or other pH-neutral (maximum pH 8) cleaner.

Do not leave spilt water on the floor, especially on Beech and Hard Maple floors, which are susceptible to moisture.

Removing Mark

Remove marks from the floor by using a mild cleaner with no ammonia such as Kährs Cleaner or washing-up liquid diluted in warm water.

Maintenance Natural Oil

Please Note: Before starting any of the maintenance work described here, check that the floor is a natural oiled floor and not a UV-oiled floor, which is more common in domestic interiors.

Prevention

Place doormats inside and outside the front door to prevent wear. Put protective pads on furniture to avoid unnecessary marks and scratches on the floor.

In rooms with a probable frequent water spillage, is recommended treatment of the floor with Kährs UV/Nature oil refresher after laying in order to seal the joints between the boards and give better protection.

Maintaining the floors in domestic environments is easy, and treatment with polish is not necessary.
