Maintenance for Natural Oiled wood flooring
1. Immediately on installation it is recommended that the flooring is cleaned and
another coat of maintenance oil is applied.
2. Please follow the Woca oil Cleaning and Maintaining instruction. To apply the
Maintaining product according to the oil company instruction
(www.woca.info/woodcare/woodcare.php)
3. Never wax a urethane floor. A majority of floors installed today have
urethane finishes.
4. Never use sheet vinyl or tile floor care products on wood floors. Self-polishing
acrylic waxes make wood become slippery and appear dull quickly. The only
remedy in this situation is to sand and refinish the floor.
5. Consult with an installer, the finisher or the manufacturer if there is any doubt
of the kind of floor finish. Never use the common house hold cleaners other
than professional wood flooring cleaning products which are recommended
(for example, Woca maintenance oil kit).
6. Place mats and throw rugs at doorways, exteriors and interiors to help prevent
the tracking of grit, dirt and sand.
7. Sweep or vacuum wood floors regularly to avoid dust and grit from building
up and possible scratching the surface.
8. Never wet-mop a wood floor. Standing water can dull the finish, damage the
wood and leave a discoloring residue.
9. Wipe up food and other spills immediately with a dry or slightly dampened
towel (wipe dry), as wood will absorb liquids which could lead to staining
and/or expansion.
10. For a wax floor, buff to restore shine. You may want to invest in a buffer.
11. Do not over-wax a wax floor. If the floor dulls, try buffing instead. Avoid wax
build up under furniture and other light traffic areas by applying wax in these
spots every other waxing session.
12. Put plastic or fabric-faced glides under the legs of furniture to prevent scuffing
and scratching.
13. Remember: cleats, sports shoes and high heels can dent any floor surface.
14. When moving heavy furniture, protect wood flooring by slipping a piece of
cloth or pile, protective pads or cups, under the legs or covering each leg with
a heavy sock or half of a milk carton.
15. For wood flooring in the kitchen, place an area rug in front of the kitchen sink
to catch water and changes regularly before any dirt or water is building up
underneath
16. For the best protection of the flooring, it is recommended that oiled floors
need to be re-oiled every 6 to 18 months or whenever the flooring starts to
look worn or tired. It is vital that the flooring is thoroughly cleaned beforehand,
by lightly applying a water and sugar soap solution then wiping off
immediately. Once cleaned, re-oiling can then commence. ( Deeply ingrained
dirt may require professional sanding and cleaning).
17. For repairing, cleaning oil needs to be used first before carrying out any repair
work.
Worn, scratches or heel marks --- to be repaired by re-waxing the area and
hand buffing to a shine;
Stains --- For dry stains from spillage liquid or food grease and oil etc, please

sandpaper until the marks are removed. Clear the sanding dust before applying
another coat of maintenance oil.
