Maintenance Tips for Laminate Furniture

Compared to wood furniture, laminate furniture is far easier to clean and maintain. Although laminates don’t stain or scratch easily, they need proper care to deliver their full value. Whether you invest in decorative laminates for bedroom, living room, kitchen, study room or any other part of your home, you must know how to keep them in good shape. That is precisely what we are going to discuss in this blog post. Read on. 

Dusting

Dusting the laminates in the bedroom or living room, either every day or once a week, keeps the dust from accumulating on the surface. You can use regular furniture sprays or polish on the laminates. Just make sure you don’t use them in excess as laminates are not porous and these cleansers cannot soak into the laminates. Any leftover on the surface, therefore, can stain your hands or clothes.

Soap-Water Solution

Using a solution of mild soap and water is one of the best ways to remove stubborn stains from designer laminate sheets. Take a microfiber cloth and damp it with the solution. After that, rub the cloth on the stained areas gently in a circular motion. Wipe the surface dry. Repeat if the stains persist. This should remove even the most obstinate stains on laminates.

Hot Water

An effective cleaning agent for laminates, especially to clean vinyl glue, is hot water. It’s not only safe for your furniture but also for those who are allergic to synthetic cleaning agents available in the market. Damp a microfiber cloth with hot water and wipe the surface to remove vinyl glue and stains.

Solvent

For tough stains, such as neoprene and silicone joint spots, you need to use an appropriate solvent. Damp a clean cloth or soft bristle brush with the solvent to clean the stains. You can also let the solution sit for a few minutes before cleaning and rinsing it off with water.
