Eternal shine varnish
Varnish coating for wooden floors, which appeared in the 60s. XIX., And today remains the most popular. Glossy varnishes give the surfaces of silky glitter, matte and semi-wave emphasize the natural pattern of the tree. At the same time, the durable lacquer protects the floor from moisture, pollution and wear.Vasserize products of companies producing varnishes, as a rule, there are also cleaners for varnish surfaces. They accelerate and facilitate daily care of the floor. When cleaning the floor (for example, after a noisy party), a small amount of such a means is added to the bucket with water and wipe the floor moose in it. To remove the hardwood spots, aerosols are suitable: foam from the canopy is applied to the spot of pollution, and then wipe off the napkin (while rubbing traces of the festive rope. An ordinary wet cloth is a long and tedious).
The purified surface of the lacquered wooden floor should be treated with decorative ramp (sometimes such means are called fresheners or reducing agents). It forms a thin protective layer on it, thanks to which the floor scratched or sweat with time looks like a new one. Now, the time of polish enhances the water-repellent and anti-slip properties of the wooden surface. Experts advise handle floors in apartments and houses every 1-2 months.
Packaging (capacity-1l) Cleaner or rapidly coated with varnish, costs 350-450 rubles. There are special care products, such as moisture-resistant protective impregnations for the jacks of parquet, parquet and massive board, as well as cleaners to remove strong contaminants (traces of rubber shoes, cycling etc.). They are not used too often, but it is important to know that there are such compositions.
Not three to holes, grind to shine
In children's fatty spots, traces of chocolate, pencils and markers from the floor are removed by diluted alcohol. A bag with ice is put on the sticking chewing gum, and then carefully scrape her floors from a natural tree treated with oil (including solid wax) in factory or home, looks most natural. Thanks to these coatings, it is possible to emphasize the texture and characteristic shades of wood. The impregnations fill the pores in its surface layer and not worse than varnish, protect the tree from adverse effects. However, they require a more careful relationship.
It should be noted that the oil-wax surfaces, unlike lacquer, are more dirty, and over time the floor often acquires a sloppy view. However, modern cleaners easily remove overall pollution. Problem sections in the corridors, near the doors, mirrors (like stains from tea, coffee and wine) can be subjected to local processing.
Like our grandmothers who regularly rub on the waxed new portions of mastic, oil covering of modern floors should also be periodically restored. True, for this no longer need many hours of exercises with brushes. It is enough to apply the remedy for a pre-cleaned surface, rub the mop and give to dry for 2-4 hours. The frequency of such treatment depends on various factors: for example, from constant wet cleaning, operating the protective oil layer, or from the tree type. So, bright, soft and porous wood beech or ash in need of reinforced care. In general, if the floor has become difficult to clean, then it's time to apply a protective-decorative polish on it. This means wipes the surface and will create a thin film on it, which will save wood from wear and will prevent the sticking of the dirt.
In addition, parquet specialists believe that on wooden floors under oil immediately after their laying it is desirable to apply a layer of ravine and polish. Auto floors covered with solid wax oil do not require special primary processing. The cost of the vial (capacity-1l) tools for caring for oil-wax surfaces - 250-1000 rub. (As we can see, the price variation is more than the compositions for lacquer floors).
Special cleaners help without any particular problems to remove the old oil impregnation or layer of oil with wax, ensuring, therefore, simple and fast coating update. This operation goes no more than a day. Now the time periodic (once 5 years) grinding the varnished floors, as well as the subsequent application of primer and several layers of varnish requires much longer time, forces and means.

Flour of choice
Most companies producing protective coatings for wooden surfaces are manufactured by the care of them, recommending the consumer to use the products of the same company (for example, washing the floor treated with BONA varnish, water with the addition of the BONA cleaner). Of course, this approach implies the perfect combination of components that make up the protective coatings and the clinics applied to them and irrigated. However, knowing the nature of varnish (polyurethane, acrylic IT.P.), covering the floors of the apartment, it is not difficult to choose the agent of any company precisely for this variety it is also suitable for cleaning and updating the lacquer surface.Lord there are facilities for the care of floors having a wide range of action. They are intended for parquet floors, as well as linoleum, laminate or ceramic tiles. Ikak seems to us that the future is behind such universal products. Judge for yourself: if there are three or four kinds of flooring in the apartment, do not envy the hostess, which should use as many different cleaners and irrigated! Meanwhile, and ravine themselves, in addition to restoring and protecting the surface, often perform the function of the cleaner, a significantly simplifying treatment process for the floor.

Nevertheless, it should be protected from the negative impact of high humidity and excessive dry air, protect the surface from sunlight, which can cause a color change, appearance of spots or cracking of a varnish objects. Experts recommend installing furniture at a distance of at least 1m from the heating devices, and if the sun shines brightly- be sure to lower the blinds or delay the curtains. Otherwise, no polyroli and cleaners will help keep it in a decent state.

For wooden surfaces, the most good compositions containing various combinations of waxes and oils. They not only purify natural material, but also fueled, protect it from drying out. In this case, the liquid means have a large concentration and create a protective film on furniture. Vials with sprinklers and aerosols contain less concentrated compositions.
People suffering from allergies and asthmatics should pay attention to the fragrance of cleaning products. Some of them have a sharp and strong smell (manufacturers are called it invigorating), in saturation is not inferior to air fresheners for toilets. Products of leading manufacturers due to the addition of perfume flavors are thin, slightly catchy fragrance, but it is more expensive.
