Floor Care: Guide for Lacquered and Oiled Wood Floors

Floor care is crucial to ensure the beauty, durability, and long lifespan of wood floors. Whether it is a residential parquet, an office building floor, or a specialized sports hall, proper maintenance helps preserve the finish's original appearance and protect it from daily wear. Loba-Wakol Baltic offers Loba professional care solutions for both lacquered and oiled wood floors, helping you maintain the value of your investment for decades.

Why is Specific Floor Care Important?

Wood floors are an excellent choice for any interior, offering warmth and natural beauty. However, over time, floors are exposed to wear, dirt, and moisture. Regular and proper maintenance is essential to prevent superficial damage, preserve the floor's aesthetic appearance, and extend its lifespan. Incorrect cleaning methods or unsuitable products can damage the floor's finish, causing stains, scratches, or wear of the finish. Loba products are specifically developed with the care needs of wood floors in mind, providing effective and safe solutions.

You can find the entire range of Loba floor care and cleaning products in our category: Cleaning and Care for Finished Floors.

Specific Care for Lacquered Floors

  • Loba ParkettCare: This is an ideal product for daily maintenance of lacquered parquet. It gently cleans and cares for the floor, leaving behind a protective layer that helps prevent scratches and wear. It ensures a matte appearance for matte floors and a glossy finish for glossy floors. Find more information here: Loba ParkettCare.
  • Loba FloorCare: Designed for deep cleaning of lacquered floors and creating a new protective layer. FloorCare effectively removes deeply embedded dirt and restores the floor's original appearance, while adding a durable protective layer that extends the life of the finish.
  • Loba InvisibleCare: If you are looking for a silicone-free solution for lacquered floor care, InvisibleCare is an excellent choice. It offers the same effective cleaning and protection as ParkettCare, but is specially formulated to avoid silicone residues that could interfere with future finishing work.
  • Loba CareRemover: Over time, old protective layers or stubborn dirt can accumulate on lacquered floors that cannot be removed with everyday products. CareRemover is designed specifically to effectively remove old care layers and prepare the floor for new treatment or finishing.

Cleaning Products for All Finished Wood Floors

  • Loba Cleaner for Finished Hardwood Floors: This is a universal and effective cleaning agent for both lacquered and oiled wood floors for daily cleaning. It effectively removes dirt and grease, leaving the floor clean and fresh without harmful residues. It is ideal for regular use to keep floors hygienic and beautiful.

Daily and Periodic Floor Care Guide

To ensure your wood floors remain beautiful and durable for decades, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:

  • Daily Cleaning: Start by cleaning the floor of loose dirt and dust with a vacuum cleaner or a dry cloth. Then wipe the floor with a damp cloth, using a diluted solution of Loba Cleaner for Finished Hardwood Floors. Avoid using excessive water.
  • Periodic Maintenance for Lacquered Floors: Depending on the degree of wear and the intensity of floor use, apply Loba ParkettCare or Loba FloorCare to lacquered floors 1-2 times a year. Before applying a new protective layer, ensure the floor is thoroughly cleaned and dry. If old care layers need to be removed, use Loba CareRemover product according to the instructions.
  • Periodic Maintenance for Oiled Floors: In addition to daily cleaning with Loba Cleaner for Finished Hardwood Floors, oiled floors require regular treatment with maintenance oil. This helps restore the wood's natural protective layer and elasticity. Although direct maintenance oils are not included in this list, the Loba product range offers several specialized oils for deep care of wood floors, ensuring optimal protection and beauty. Consult us to find the best oiling product.
