Residential Maintenance Guidelines

Newly Installed Floor Care

• Always use plywood or other boards when moving heavy objects across the floor.
• Sweep, dust mop or vacuum the floor to remove all loose dirt and grit.
• Lightly damp mop with well wrung mop.

Initial & Routine Maintenance (Daily or as needed)

• Sweep, dust mop or vacuum the floor to remove all loose dirt and grit. Do not use treated dust mops.
• Clean the floor using a properly diluted Neutral pH cleaner in cool water or ready to use spray cleaner that will not leave a residue such as Bona Professional Series Stone, Tile, and Laminate Cleaner in a pre-mixed spray bottle. Follow label instructions.

Over Time

Over time floors may begin to lose their luster and may require an application of floor polish. When and where you apply the floor polish will depend on the traffic the floor receives. A good quality floor polish like "Hilway Direct" can provide up to a year of protection in a high traffic area.

Floor Polish Application Directions:

1. Vacuum or dry sweep then damp mop floor to remove loose dirt and soil from floor. Thoroughly scrub and clean floor with Neutral pH cleaner to remove all soil. Follow label Instructions.
2. Apply floor polish undiluted in a thin, even coat using a microfiber applicator mop. Do not use treated dust mops. Follow label instructions.
3. Apply 2-3 coats. Allow each coat to air dry completely (generally 30-60 minutes) before applying next coat.
4. Allow floor surface to dry overnight before heavy traffic use.

Prevention

The single greatest cause of damage to any flooring or floor finish is abrasion from dirt and grit. Wherever possible, use walk off mats at entrances and doorways. Use non-staining floor protectors under heavy furniture, chairs, and tables.

Commercial Maintenance Guidelines

Safety Precautions

• When performing any wet maintenance, always put out wet floor signs and caution tape.
• When wet maintenance is finished and the floor is dry, remove all caution signs & tape.
• Carefully read and follow each product's label instructions for proper use.
• Refer to each product's MSDS for use of personal protective equipment.

Newly Installed Floor Care

• Always use plywood or other boards when moving heavy objects across the floor.
• Follow the Initial & Routine Maintenance instructions below.

Important Note:

If the floor was glued down:

• Remove adhesive residue using a clean cloth dampened with mineral spirits. Follow label instructions
• Permit light foot traffic on the new floor after 3-4 hours giving the adhesive time to set up.
• Keep furniture, fixtures and rolling traffic off the new floor for 48 hours.
• Wait 72 hours (3 days) before wet cleaning the new floor. This will allow the adhesive to fully cure.

Initial & Routine Maintenance (Daily or as needed)

• Sweep, dust mop or vacuum the floor to remove all loose dirt and grit. Do not use treated dust mops.
• Clean the floor using a properly diluted Neutral pH cleaner (Hilway Direct – Neutral Cleaner) in cool water or ready to use spray cleaner that will not leave a residue. We recommend Bona Professioinal Series Stone, Tile, and Laminate Cleaner in a pre-mixed bottle. Follow label instructions. It is recommended to use flooring cleaner only once a week to prevent residue build-up. Spot clean with damp mop in between.
• You can mop or machine clean using 175-rpm "Swing-arm" machine or auto scrubber with a 3M 5100 Red pad (or equal).
• Rinse the floor thoroughly with clean water and allow it to dry. Fans or air movers can speed up the drying time.

Daily Cleaning Directions:

• Sweep floor to remove loose dirt & soil.
• Using Mop & Bucket (2-bucket system) or Auto-Scrub Machine, dilute Hilway Direct Neutral Cleaner as directed on product label. Mop floor with the cleaning solution.
• Trail mop excess soil and wet areas with a clean, tightly wrung out mop.
• No rinsing required.
• Allow floor to air dry completely.
