Some folk remedies remove dirt, but they damage the floor covering.
Linoleum is easy to maintain. It can be washed with many modern cleaning products.
If you don’t want to use household chemicals and the choice falls on folk tricks, then it is important to carefully select the compositions.
Some ingredients can damage the finish. For example, vinegar is great for removing stains, but it can damage the top decorative layer.
Experts also do not recommend washing linoleum with laundry soap. But in this case, the problem is that stains may remain. Therefore, the soap solution will have to be washed off with clean water.
With citric acid, things are not so simple either. The product can bring the coating to a "creaky" shine.
But experts warned that citric acid should not come into contact with PVC for more than 15 minutes. The result could be a change in the color of the linoleum.
Chlorine also has a negative effect on flooring. Firstly, it can ruin the pattern. Secondly, it can change the structure of the material.
