The floor looks 100 years old, when it is only 2 months old.I called the hotline. They suggested a mixture of vinegar and water. Did not work. I purchased Laminate so I would not have the maintance of wood floors. Could anyone help me out?
Thank-you in advance.

Good Afternoon,

Thank you for your question. Your laminate flooring frustration is something that we hear almost daily from flooring consumers. Have you tried Bona's Hardwood Floor Cleaner? It works great on laminate and in tests that we conducted, removed the white film (haze) on flooring left by other cleaners.

If you go to our articles or Google and search for "Bona vs Swiffer" you will find our article and test on this cleaning system. Please let us know the results.

You can purchase Bona online from http://www.onlinefloorstore.com. Tell them that FindAnyFloor.com sent you for an extra discount.

Have a great day.

laminate floors florida, in response to your post; swollen laminate as a result of steam cleaning or water logging from other sources is usually unrepairable. It is better to prevent damage by avoiding steam cleaning than having to repair it after the fact.

Laminate and hardwood steam cleaners seem to be popping up everywhere! I've seen them at homes shows, on TV and most recently on QVC. Every single person/company selling flooring steam cleaners claim they are safe and GREAT for laminate and hardwood. Before buying, I Googled it and found this post. I then did a little more research and went to 7 different laminate and hardwood flooring websites, including the brand I have. EVERY SINGLE SITE had said NOT to use water or steam cleaner. In fact some sites posted using a steam cleaner will void their warranty. I'm glad I found this post before I ruined my beautiful flooring with a steam cleaner! Thank You!

So whats the deal with all those steam cleaning commercials I see on tv? They make it seem like you can steam clean ANY floor including vinyl and hardwood with their product. What a joke. Thanks for the help before I steamed my laminate. glad I did the research

I have what I believe are original 1945 hardwood floors which I want to refinish myself. It looks as if the pattern is every 3-4 slats (lighter mixed with darker). How do I start? Some are cracked, wher do I go to replace? I was going to use the vinegar/water mixture to see if that would cut the years of junk....I saw a video on sanders, also...guess I would need to rent one, yes??

my sons dog is scratching our hardwood floors. any suggusting h how to stop her?

You can use little rubber tips made to go on dogs nails. Or doggy booties, though they may be hard to keep on. You best bet is keeping them trimmed and filed smooth. Good luck!

I use only Bruce cleaner with a swiffer to clean my laminate floors, but I have problems with shoe and foot prints showing on my floors. What am I doing wrong?
