Cleaning tips



Wipe with vinegar water

 The main component of vinegar is acetic acid, which is an organic acid with certain bactericidal and stain removing effects. You can use a clean cloth dipped in diluted vinegar water to gently wipe the wooden floor. This can remove dust, oil stains, and bacteria from the wooden floor, neutralize alkaline substances on the wooden floor, and prevent the wooden floor from turning yellow. However, it should be noted that the concentration of vinegar should not be too high, otherwise it will cause corrosion to the wooden floor. Generally speaking, adding one tablespoon of vinegar per liter of water is sufficient.



Remove scratches with toothpaste

During the use of wooden flooring, it is inevitable that it will be scratched by furniture, toys, or other hard objects, which will affect the aesthetics of the wooden flooring. If you want to remove these scratches, you can try using toothpaste. The main components of toothpaste are fluoride, phosphate, and abrasives, which can fill scratches on wooden floors and increase their luster. You just need to use a clean cloth to apply some toothpaste, and then gently wipe the scratch until it disappears. However, it should be noted that the color of the toothpaste should be similar to the color of the wooden floor, otherwise there may be color differences.


Remove stains with lemon juice

Lemon is a fruit rich in vitamin C, which can be used not only for drinking but also for cleaning. The main component of lemon is citric acid, which is an organic acid with strong bleaching and cleaning effects. Dip a clean cloth in some lemon juice and gently wipe off the stains on the wooden floor, which can restore its original color. However, it should be noted that the concentration of lemon juice should not be too high, otherwise it will cause corrosion to the wooden floor. Generally speaking, adding one tablespoon of lemon juice per liter of water is sufficient.



Care with edible oil

Edible oil is a common kitchen appliance that can be used not only for cooking, but also for care. The main component of edible oil is fatty acids, which can provide a protective film for wooden floors, prevent them from drying and cracking, and increase their luster and softness. You can dip a clean cloth in some cooking oil and apply it evenly on the wooden floor to make it more moist and smooth. However, it should be noted that the type of edible oil should be chosen to be odorless, such as corn oil, peanut oil, etc., otherwise there will be an odor.
