Cleaning & Maintenance

About

This collection brings together the cleaners, soaps and refresher oils that keep a finished timber floor performing between recoats. It suits flooring contractors handing a floor over at completion and DIY owners caring for a floor at home. The first thing to settle is the finish, because an oiled floor and a lacquered floor are cared for differently. Oiled boards stay healthy with a soap that leaves a thin protective layer and, in time, a refresher oil, so most are matched to WOCA Natural Soap and Woca Oil Refresher . Lacquered and polyurethane floors want a residue-free cleaner that will not dull the sheen, such as Berger-Seidle Brilliance Neutral Cleaner . Australian sun, dry ducted heating and tracked-in grit all wear a finish faster, so a steady routine earns its keep.

Set a rhythm: damp-mop weekly and re-soap or re-oil as traffic dictates - see the floor care guide . Frequently asked questions What is the difference between WOCA Natural Soap and Oil Refresher?
