Cleaning and maintaining design flooring

Design flooring from MEISTER is a highly durable floor covering that is also easy to maintain. In this text, we explain what you should bear in mind so that your floor stays beautiful for a long time to come.

A few tips in advance: When cleaning, please be aware that the floor must only ever be slightly moistened. In the ideal case, the film of water should be a thin mist, so that it dries out after about a minute. Some types of wood, such as beech or maple, are particularly sensitive to moisture. You should not use any abrasive cleaners, even in case of more severe stains. Even for stubborn stains and dirt, the Dr. Schutz Elatex Stain Remover will help. Scratches on the floor not only affect the overall appearance. They will also make the floor more prone to dirt and moisture. The Dr. Schutz care products are designed to ensure that the floor is considerably more resistant to signs of wear and tear in heavy wear areas. Your qualified specialist shops will also be able to provide you with more tips on how to care for your MEISTER floor in the best possible way. 

Every MEISTER floor must be cleaned after completion of construction work and before first use in order to completely remove any dirt or glue residue which has arisen during the course of the installation. You should clean MEISTER design flooring after completion of construction work with Dr. Schutz PU Cleaner, diluted with water in a ratio of 1:10. Clean the floor using a well wrung out mop and then neutralise with clear water.

Loose dust and dirt is removed by vacuuming or sweeping. Depending on the frequency and degree of dirt, the removal of bonded dirt should be carried out with Dr. Schutz PU Cleaner, which is diluted with water at a ratio of 1:200. The floor should be wiped with a thin mist of water using a mop, which has been dipped in this solution and wrung out well. Remove stubborn stains and heel marks with undiluted Dr. Schutz PU Cleaner and a cloth or non-scratch, white pad. Then wipe the floor with clear water. 

A thorough clean of the floor is required to remove particularly stubborn dirt and residues and to prepare the floor for treatment with a care product in case of visible signs of wear. For this evenly spray Dr. Schutz Deep Clean undiluted om the floor and after allowing it to take effect for a short while (max. 5 minutes) scrub with a green pad or scrubbing brush. Wipe away loosened dirt using a cloth and wipe over again using clear water until all dirt and cleaner residue has been completed removed. Note: If the flooring is not to receive a care treatment afterwards only use scrubbing brushes instead of green pads.

If there are signs of wear on the surface after long or intensive use, this can be refreshed with intensive maintenance after thoroughly cleaning the floor with (Dr. Schutz Deep Clean). To do this, apply Dr. Schutz Floor Mat undiluted, thinly and evenly in a lengthwise direction with a lint-free mop rinsed in clear water and wrung out well. When the protective film can be walked on (after 45 minutes), apply a second coating in the crossways direction. Use: 750ml for approx. 25 – 35m² per application. If the protective film is worn away over the course of time, this can be refreshed with intensive maintenance after thoroughly cleaning the floor with Dr. Schutz Deep Clean.

In commercial properties cleaning should always be possible using a cleaning machine or spray cleaning process with a disk buffing machine as well as separate value conservation measures. Please contact our technical customer services in case of application.
