How Do You Care for Invictus Vinyl?

Invictus LVT is an option for the home that has a much lower cost than the real thing it emulates. The low areas of maintenance required to keep the floor in the out-of-the-box condition are something that appeals to everyone.

With anti-scratch, anti-stain and moisture resistance design, people generally feel that it is taking care of itself, but a little consideration in care with the floor will ensure it keeps a healthier lifespan way past 30 years.

Stain Removal

Cleaning your Invictus vinyl floor is not a lengthy process, so don’t expect to be down on your knees for long. It also does not require different expensive chemicals to retain its fresh look.

For any spillages such as juice or alcohol or lighter stains, a simple dishcloth soaked with warm soapy water or washing-up liquid will effectively remove any stains with placement on the area for no more than 15 minutes.

More stubborn, harder-to-shift stains from sauces or ink-based products require a bit more attention in cleaning where mixing warm water and bicarbonate soda to form a paste-like substance. From there, place this paste onto the area, slowly rubbing until the stain is no longer visible and all trace is gone.

A Simple Mop

Due to its tendency to block out any leakage between tiles and boards, Invictus is easy to clean with a simple household mop or sponge-based cleaning apparatus.

Utilise a simple floor cleaning solution, but you can also use vinegar or washing up liquid mixed with hot water to effectively remove any deep stains that prove problematic. Ensure that the mop is wrung after each section so as not to flood your floor

Your floor can receive damage from too much water and cause discolouration or warping. Be sure to clean up any puddles left behind after a clean.

Scratches and Scuffs

You’ll find that Invictus flooring is incredibly durable and does not fall victim to the usual problems caused by daily household activity.

If deep scratches happen over time, it’s helpful to know individual tiles can be replaced without taking up huge sections of the floor. As a cost-effective solution for flooring over real hardwood or stone, scratches in vinyl can be repaired inexpensively. Ensure that all dirt on the floor has been cleaned away before lightly sanding down the vinyl without damaging the finish.

Once the scratch has been thinned out, use dish detergent and water to clean away any dust from the sandpaper. Following this with a circle buff of the floor with some non-rubber laced car wax with a clean rag to give the floor a finish and retain its original look of the floor. The texture should also feel consistent with other surrounding boards.

Luxury vinyl flooring, such as grey parquet flooring, is a great option for those with limited hours in the week to keep things clean and tidy. If you provide a little careful work, they will take care of the rest. Invictus is the brand designed to outlast all threats to flooring.
