There are many wooden floors at home. What tools do you like to clean?

In addition to tiles, many people also like to spread wooden floors at home. Without the cold feeling and fresh wood texture, it is easy to give people a warm feeling. But if you want to keep it clean for a long time, you must learn the skills of cleaning and nursing.

After a period of use, the wooden floor is always easy to become dull, and various stains appear, which seriously affects the impression, so we have to pay attention to cleaning, but incorrect cleaning methods will affect its own service life. Let's take a look at how the wooden floor should be cleaned and maintained.

First, the overall comprehensive cleaning If you want to clean the wooden floor, you must first carry out a comprehensive cleaning, so that the cleaning will be better, so what should you do?

1. 1 surface dust removal

In addition to the dust on the floor, some sand and gravel may be brought in during daily activities. I don't want these gravel to wear the floor in the subsequent cleaning, so I have to carry out a dust removal treatment in the early stage.

① traditional broom dust removal

This can be said to be the most economical and convenient dust removal method. Clean the floor. It is enough to clean the dirty places several times. Just note that if there are a lot of hairs on the ground, they are easily entangled on the bristles, which will affect the cleaning efficiency.

If you want to have a good cleaning effect, you can put a plastic bag on the broom head after cleaning some large particles of impurities on the ground. During the cleaning process, the friction between the plastic bag and the ground produces static electricity, which can absorb those hairs and some tiny dust and improve the dust removal efficiency.

② Dust removal by sweeping robot.

In addition to manual operation, you can also use some intelligent tools, such as sweeping robots, to help dust removal. A flexible sweeping brush with large suction can clean all the dust, and with the function of mopping the floor, it can also save some follow-up work. It is simple and convenient, and it is very considerate for those friends who usually have no time to do housework cleaning.

However, it should be noted that the vacuum cleaner also has the problem of hair entanglement. If there is a lot of hair at home, be sure to pay attention to whether the vacuum cleaner at home has anti-winding function, so it will be more reassuring to use.

Tips:

Dust easily accumulates on the wooden floor. If dust accumulates, it will not only increase the difficulty of cleaning, but also lead to unstable ground and easy to produce many scratches. Therefore, the frequency of dust removal at home is higher, and it is best to do it once a day.

1.2 overall wiping

For intelligent tools such as sweeping robots, if sweeping and dragging are integrated, this step can naturally be omitted. However, if there is no sweeping robot at home or the sweeper has no mopping function, you need to mop the floor after the surface dust removal work is completed.

Just use an ordinary mop, because the wooden floor is afraid of moisture. Wring the mop dry before mopping the floor. In order to reduce the trouble, you can also use a sponge mop or other mops that can be wrung out by yourself, so that people can handle the floor more conveniently.

Tips:

If you want to handle the floor more easily, you can mop the floor with warm water (about 40℃). Because the water temperature is high, it evaporates faster, so that the water stains will stay on the floor surface for a shorter time, avoiding the floor from getting wet, and it is easier to drag all the stains off.

Second, local stain cleaning, dust removal and mopping can only be regarded as a basic cleaning. In the process of cleaning, I believe everyone will always encounter some stubborn little stains, which will affect the aesthetic feeling of the floor, but ordinary water can't clean it. So how should these stains be cleaned? We should deal with stains according to their characteristics.

① Stickies such as chewing gum.

You can use ice to deal with it. First, put the ice cubes in a plastic bag, press them on the chewing gum and let it solidify. When you press the gum with your hand and find it completely hardened, you can pull it out with a toothbrush or brush, and then brush it completely with a small brush with moderate hardness. This method can also be used to remove sticky things such as double-sided tape.

② Egg stains

This kind of trace can be treated with refined salt. After an egg accidentally falls to the ground, it should be wiped clean first, and the eggshell should also be wiped clean. Then, you can sprinkle some refined salt on the place where there are egg marks, which can decompose the protein in the egg marks and make it easier to clean. 10 to 15 minutes later, the traces on the ground will be easily removed.

③ Oil pollution

You can clean it with concentrated alkaline water, then cover the stain with dough made of bleached soil and hot water, keep it in this state for one night, and then clean it with clear water. If the stain is not cleaned, this process can be repeated until the oil stain is removed.

In addition, if someone in the family has the habit of drinking tea, you can also wash it with the remaining tea leaves, cover it in a dirty place and wait for a while, then sweep the tea leaves away, and then wipe the stains repeatedly, which can quickly remove oil stains.

④ Blood stains

If it is fresh blood, it can be quickly removed with clear water in time; If it is an old blood stain, it can be washed with lemon juice and salt water, and then washed with water after removing the blood stain. Or it can be washed with ginger or white radish juice, which can quickly remove blood stains. Just be careful not to wash it with hot water. The blood is rich in protein, which is not easy to dissolve in hot water.

⑤ Pigment

If paint is spilled on the floor, it must be removed before it goes deep into the floor. Wipe off the stains on the surface with a clean rag first, and then wipe with furniture wax to make the floor clean.

If you can use candles at home, you can generally accumulate the remaining candle heads, chop them to remove the wick, add the same amount of turpentine when you collect a certain amount, boil them in water, stir them and pour them into the cylinder for cooling. If necessary, you can take it out and heat it slightly to help remove stains.

Daily maintenance nursing

In addition to the above cleaning tips, if you want to keep the wooden floor clean and shiny for a long time, you should pay attention to some maintenance and care, wax it regularly, and repair it when the ground is worn, which can reduce the difficulty of cleaning in the future and ensure its beauty and service life.

3. 1 Waxing regularly

First of all, wax the wood floor regularly, so as to keep the wood floor bright in color, more delicate in texture and strong in luster, and also enhance its service life. And no matter what kind of wooden floor, it contains a certain amount of water. If there is a lack of water, the cracks in the floor will increase, and the loss of water can be avoided after waxing.

However, although floor waxing has many benefits, it can't be waxed frequently, otherwise it will lead to the superposition of wax scale and wax layer, and there will be a layer of ash between the two wax layers, which will affect the waxing effect. The wax layer can't penetrate into the inner layer of the floor, but only adheres to the surface layer of the floor, leaving footprints on it when walking, which affects the beauty of the floor. Waxing once every two or three months is usually enough.

Before waxing, be sure to clean the floor surface, and then apply the floor wax evenly on the floor with a clean and lint-free soft cloth, and then wipe it with a clean rag. Waxing should be carefully applied according to the direction of wood grain of the floor, and the thickness should be uniform. Don't miss it. Too little smear can easily lead to uneven shading, and too much can easily lead to poor film formation.

Tips:

When waxing the floor, make sure that the floor surface is clean, and wax it at least three times after drying; If you want wax oil to penetrate into the wood, you can wipe the floor with a cloth without fluff or a waxer; If you want the floor to have a strong luster, remember to polish it with a soft cloth every time you wax it.

3.2 Regular repair

In daily use, even if you pay attention, it is inevitable that there will still be scratches and other traces or become obsolete, so pay attention to painting repair. The specific method is as follows:

① polishing

After cleaning up the sundries on the floor, polish the old floor repeatedly with a refurbished machine to remove the paint layer on the floor surface 1~2mm. Then prepare four kinds of sandpaper with different mesh numbers. First, use coarse sand to remove the paint layer, surface layer and wood layer by about 0.5mm, and then use fine sand to polish the floor, generally three times to make the surface smooth and delicate.

② Blow putty

Next, you need to scrape the ground with putty, level the ground, and evenly scrape the putty matched with the floor paint on the polished floor. When it dries naturally, you should brush putty evenly. Here is a trick, brush along the direction of wood grain, and the effect is better.

Tips:

The putty should be scraped 3 times, and it should be noted that the putty of the last time is completely dry before brushing it again; In addition, in the process of putty drying, we must prevent the cool wind from blowing directly, otherwise, although it looks dry, it will lock the moisture in the floor, and the indoor temperature may crack and accumulate dust, which will increase the difficulty of cleaning and be unsightly.

③ paint.

When the putty is completely dry, you can brush the floor. First, the floor can be primed. After the primer is dried, the topcoat can be applied. It is best to use environmentally friendly water-based paint, which has no smell and can effectively shorten the decoration time and be healthier.

In addition, if there is a crack in the floor, it must be repaired with a mending agent first to avoid cracking of the floor in the future. If the gap is too big, it can be filled with wooden strips and then painted.

④ Waxing

Finally, waxing, which is specifically mentioned in the above conventional waxing, will not be repeated here.

Maintenance tips:

In order to better protect the wooden floor, there are also some places to pay attention to in the usual living habits:

(1) Pay attention to the weather at ordinary times, and close the doors and windows in advance before it rains to prevent water from floating in, which will lead to mildew and humidity. When the weather is fine on weekdays, pay attention to indoor ventilation, create a dry environment and prevent water vapor at the bottom.

(2) to prevent high temperature, it is necessary to avoid direct exposure of the wooden floor in the sun, which is easy to dry and deform due to lack of water. You can put an insulating mat on the wooden floor.

(3) When moving furniture, avoid dragging it directly on the wooden floor to avoid scratching the floor.

(4) Use a dust-removing pad at the entrance to remove some gravel and dust from the soles when entering the door, so as to avoid bringing them indoors, increasing the difficulty of cleaning and possibly scratching the floor.
