    Solid wood flooring is mainly moisture-proof, anti-cracking, anti-scratching, anti-paint cracking or discoloration.

    If the living room is in better condition. Humidity and temperature are stable. There is basically no direct sunlight and there is not much dust. In fact, there is basically no need to do too much maintenance. (Because the current floor materials have been made of protective layers).

    Just take care to avoid rubbing with plenty of water.

    When you talk about waxing, I don't think it's much of a need.

    If the conditions in the living room are not ideal, you need to choose maintenance products in a targeted manner.

    For example, if the humidity and temperature vary greatly, it is easy to get damp and crack. It is necessary to choose wood wax with moisturizing effect. When the sun shines directly on the surface of the floor, wood wax is also needed to protect the paint from discoloration and cracking.

    If there is often dust in the room, you need to choose wood wax and add some synthetic wax to protect it to avoid scratching the surface.

    Do you need waxing on laminate flooring?

    Although I sell wax, I firmly say: laminate flooring should not be waxed.

    Hardwood flooring is waxed to increase brightness and protect the surface (the surface of the solid wood floor is plated with surface paint or UV acrylic paint), although it has a certain brightness and is not easy to be worn out, but it is far from the wear-resistant layer of laminate flooring.

    Laminate flooring (impregnated paper laminated wood flooring) is covered with wear-resistant and beautiful surface paper, which is pressed into a new type of wood floor by modern mechanical and electrical equipment under high temperature and high pressure. The most obvious advantage of laminate flooring is its high wear resistance.

    Waxing on laminate flooring, first of all, can not improve or change the brightness; Second, it will make daily cleaning more troublesome.

    And, it is highly recommended: laminate flooring should not be waxed from the start.

    I've met a lot of customers who, after the renovation, can't stand the flickering (what this wax is better than that wax, etc.), and the result: waxing the laminate flooring.

    From then on, the troubles continued, until finally, all the wax that had been put on it was completely removed. Time and money were wasted.

    As a laminate floor, the wear resistance itself is already very good, the brightness has been finalized, and it does not need to be crack resistant like solid wood flooring, so there is no reason to wax.

    Moreover, the wax of this thing, once it has been beaten, if there is no regular wax, the floor will appear dirty, how annoying, if unfortunately has been waxed, it is recommended to remove the wax as soon as possible, and clean the floor.

    Only solid wood flooring needs to consider floor wax.
