We are often asked whether it’s necessary to wax luxury vinyl flooring to retain the beautiful shine these products come with. The good news is that you never have to hand wax these floors because the beauty is built into the flooring and lasts as long as the floors are in place.

Understanding wax and luxury vinyl flooring


Luxury vinyl flooring
already comes with a fantastic coating that ensures a seal and shines that help give your floors their beautiful visual image. Applying wax may seem like a great way to keep the floors looking their best, but it will harm the existing coating on your LVP flooring in Anderson, SC, especially with repeated layers.

If you attempt to use wax or products intended to make other flooring types shine, the opposite effect will happen, and you’ll be left with a dull buildup that mutes the beauty of your flooring. A simple sweep and mop with a mild detergent is the only maintenance required to keep your floors looking great for up to 20 years.

In addition to excellent visual appeal, you can also expect excellent protection from luxury vinyl flooring, including scratch, stain, and scuff resistance. Vinyl plank flooring products are 100% waterproof, so you’ll never have to worry about water damage or replacing your floors.
