The finish on your floor determines the proper cleaning procedure
To maintain the beauty and strength of flooring for a longtime, proper cleaning is essential.
It is important to clean wood flooring carefully using products that are specifically designed for this purpose. Using the incorrect product can leave your wood discoloured and unprotected.
WOCA have developed soaps for regular floor cleaning. Cleaning with these Natural Soaps regularly will result in your floor becoming more hardwearing, dirt resistant and easier to clean.
Cleaning guidelines for Oil finishes
WOCA Natural Soap is a superb wood soap, and important for cleaning oil finished floors as it leaves a microscopically, invisible soap layer on the wood surface. This means dirt tracked onto the floors adheres to the soap instead of the wood fibers, making cleaning easier and faster. Along with cleaning Natural soap leaves an invisible layer of soy and coconut fat behind which helps to ward off almost anything. It cleans and protects like a moisturising cleanser.
To refresh oil finished floors use WOCA Oil Refresher.
This cleans the surface and has a bit of oil in it, which rejuvenates the finish.
WOCA Natural Soap and WOCA Oil Refresher work together as a system to clean, protect and revive your floor. For a durable, well protected, beautiful oil finish, we recommend mopping with WOCA Natural Soap on a regular basis and mopping with WOCA Oil Refresher approx. every fourth time or as needed.
Use two buckets to clean flooring properly, one containing the soap solution and a second with pure water to rinse the mop. Change the water in the second bucket as needed. This method prevents the floor from getting a greyish gleam caused by dirty water. Do not leave excess water on the floor surface, wipe with a well wrung out mop.
To rejuvenate oil finishes WOCA produce Intensive Wood Cleaner followed WOCA Maintenance Oil or WOCA Maintenance Oil Diamond Active
