FLOOR CARE ESSENTIALS
What To Do
-
Vacuum or sweep floor regularly. General cleaning once every week is recommended.
-
Remove spills promptly using your Bona® MicroPlus™ mop or MicroPlus™ Floor Cloth and Bona® Swedish Formula® Floor Cleaner.
-
Place mats at exterior doors to trap sand and grit. Use area rugs in high traffic pathways, at the ends of steps and near doorways. Avoid rubber backing or non-ventilated rugs.
-
Use protective pads or caps such as Bona® FloorGards™ on "feet" of furniture.
-
Renew worn surfaces with Bona® Swedish Formula® Hardwood Floor Refresher before the bare wood is exposed. Not for use on Hard Surface floors.
-
Maintain a consistent humidity level between heating seasons in all living areas. Excessive swings in humidity levels will cause hardwood floors to swell, shrink, cup, crack and show excessive gaps between boards. The use of a humidifier, and/or dehumidifier systems is recommended where inconsistent humidity levels occur.
What Not To Do
-
Don't let sand, dirt or grit build up. They can act like sandpaper and actually abrade and dull your floor finish.
-
Don't damp mop hardwood floors. Too much water can cause the floor to swell or warp.
-
Don't let your pets' claws go untrimmed. Proper claw trimming helps avoid scratches and gouges.
-
Don't walk on your hardwood floors in high heels, and keep heels in good repair.
-
Don't use wax, oil soap or other household cleaners on polyurethane finished wood floors. They can dull today's floor finishes and make refinishing difficult.

If using the Bona MicroPlus mop to dry mop, remove any loose dirt or grit after dry-mopping by rinsing with water and wringing out he mop pad prior to cleaning floor with Bona® Swedish Formula® Hardwood Floor Cleaner.
2. SPRAY
Lightly mist a 4' x 6' area of your floor or directly mist the cleaning pad with Swedish Formula® Hardwood Floor Cleaner.
3. CLEAN
Using a slightly dampened, well wrung-out Bona MicroPlus cleaning pad, thorough clean the floor surface using your Bona MicroPlus mop. Finish one area before moving on to the next.
When your mop pad becomes soiled, rinse with water, thoroughly wring out the pad and continue cleaning with Swedish Formula® Hardwood Floor Cleaner. When the mop pad becomes excessively soiled, launder and replace with another clean mop pad. Continued use of excessively soiled pads may cause streaking. Your Bona MicroPlus cleaning pads are reusable and washable.
Do not use any fabric softeners, dryer sheets or bleach on your MicroPlus cleaning pad, as these products will diminish the natural cleaning characteristics of the microfiber.
When a spill occurs, soak up the liquid right away. Mist the area with cleaner, and wipe with your Bona MicroPlus mop or a MicroPlus Floor Cloth.
