The next step to restore laminate flooring is to clean with the right cleaning agent. To make your floor appear shiny again it is important that use a good laminate cleaner. Cleaners that contain harsh and aggressive chemicals can strip the shine off your laminate floor and make it look faded. The best cleaning material for the floor is a soft lint free cloth or microfiber.

Next squeeze a dollop of laminate repair paste onto a scrap piece of flooring or a mixing board and mix it with a putty knife until it begins to dry. Here are a few do s and don t s of how to restore laminate floor shine. Abrasive scrubbers include steel wool scrubbing pads and scrubbing sponges. Those little bits of rock and dirt that hangs on to your shoes can become ground into your laminate causing micro scratches on the surface.

Then press a shallow layer into the chip. Laminate floor can scratch easily so don t use scrubbing pads or abrasive cleaners to maintain the floor. This method works for minor chips and scratches that can be repaired with putty or a marker specifically made to repair laminate flooring. Sweep your floor a couple of times a week if not every day to remove debris from your flooring.

Don t try to fill the entire chip in one application. First use a sample of your laminate flooring if you have one to find a touch up or repair kit in a matching color. Clean the flooring with the solvent and let it dry.
