HG parquet gloss finish protective coating (p.e. polish) (product 51) 1L

Product Information

Parquet flooring is one of the most visually appealing and stylish types of flooring available. You can add extra shine to the floors by adding multiple layers of lacquer to match your interior design. After sanding has been carried out, the floor can be finished with a suitable lacquer, wax or oil. How to Sand a Parquet Floor If you would like to clean a parquet floor that is not varnished, you could use HG laminate cleaner despite its name. This is safe for cleaning unvarnished parquet floors. Remember to wring out the mop properly so that the floor does not become too wet.

Whenever you are relocating furniture pieces, remember that you don’t want to drag them across the floor. Lift them instead. If you would like to ensure even better prevention from dents and scratches, you can invest in caps and pads that you attach to the feet and under heavier furniture pieces. On top of this frame and mesh is the top layer made of hardwood which can be made from any of the hardwood species. This top layer of hardwood gives parquet flooring its distinctive colour, grain, and texture. If you own a carpet cleaning machine, this is the best way to clean your floor. If not, you can still do a good job without one.

Place doormats and rugs strategically on the front door of your home and around the house. It might sound like a poor decision, but a few rugs can go a long way by preventing from scratches, dents and dirt buildups in high traffic areas. That said, any mop will be fine as long as it’s fairly soft. Considering you can’t use anything abrasive on parquet floor, you might need to put in some elbow grease! HG has a wide range for cleaning parquet wooden floors. For oiled, varnished and untreated parquet floors

Since parquet floors can get damaged in moist and humid conditions, it is very important that the humidity level be controlled in a room, especially in the case of a kitchen or bathroom. Ensure proper ventilation and use dehumidifiers to prevent a humid environment. There are several reasons why you might find missing individual sections of parquet. Perhaps electrical or plumbing work was carried out, or walls were removed. Sometimes, parquet will be missing where there was once a fireplace hearth, while other times, water damage may have left individual tiles beyond repair.Vinegar for parquet not treated with oil: vinegar is only suitable for cleaning parquet that is not treated with oil, otherwise it is better not to use it. For washing, use half a cup of vinegar to which you can add 30 drops of mint essential oil. Clean the floor with a soft cloth and then let it dry.

Drop a small amount of water onto the floor. If it beads up, it’s sealed. But if the water soaks in, it’s either not been sealed or it’s worn off. Once the floor has been installed, you have to clean it thoroughly before it is used for the first time (“cleaning after construction work”). In doing so, you remove the dirt and dust caused by the installation and prepare the floor for future use. To clean naturally oiled MEISTER Longlife parquet, use CC Wood Care for Oiled Floors diluted with water in a ratio of 1:200; to clean lacquered Longlife parquet, use CC Wood and Cork Floor Cleaner. The floor should be wiped damp using a lint-free cloth, which has been dipped in this solution and wrung out well. For commercial areas and areas which are particularly highly frequented, such as hallways, kitchens and open-plan living areas with direct access to outdoors, we recommend subsequent treatment with a suitable care oil for naturally oiled surfaces. Spill and splashes, scuff marks and little scratches can all affect the beauty of a parquet floor —thankfully, there are steps you can take yourself to put them right. The first step in the installation is to prepare the floor on which parquet planks will be installed. Parquet flooring works best on concrete or wood floors. Synthetic flooring such as vinyl or laminate should be removed prior to installation.As with the cleaning products, you’ll want to patch test these before use. Also, the floor needs to be as clean as possible because any debris could get sealed onto the floor. In most DIY stores or specialist retailers there are polishing machines for parquet to rent or rent – the cost is around 20 to 30 euros per day plus deposit. In principle A car polishing machine can also be used for polishing parquet. However, this is only recommended in the marginal areas, polishing the entire floor surface would be much too complicated.

However, there may be some differences in effort. With oiled and waxed parquet, the floor is only impregnated and the pores of the wood remain open. As a result, the oil or wax dissens over time and the gloss of the parquet decreases. HG parquet cleaner extra strong has been developed specifically for removing stubborn dirt and grease from varnished parquet floors. You can use it to clean your floor without affecting the varnish. You can also use HG parquet cleaner for regular mopping of your varnished floor. This cleaner is also suitable for parquet floors that have been treated with HG parquet protective coatings. Conversely, you can leave the parquet floor unpolished to give a raw and distressed look in an industrial interior design. Thus, with regular maintenance, you can keep your parquet floor as good as new for years.

When sanding and buffing is complete, you can apply a finish to your parquet floor. Don't attempt to do this until the floor is thoroughly clean —brush, then hoover the floor and wipe it down. Despite the many different patterns, wood, and types of parquet (solid wood or hardwood), the overall texture of the floor is smooth, yet it still retains the natural wood texture. This provides a very warm and comfortable feel when users walk on it. To calculate the total cost of your wood floor restoration, you’ll need to first work out the area of flooring to be restored. From there you’ll need to take into consideration the type of wood, the condition and the amount of restoration required. For larger floors, it might be a better option to hire a professional restorer. It can be a very long-winded job that involves a lot of sanding and cleaning. Although oil, wax or varnish can be affected, it does protect your parquet floor. It is a good idea to protect your floor with those once every so often. HG has several products for this purpose.
