Product Information
The PERGO Outlast+ flooring is designed to provide long-lasting durability and resistance to stains. The surface layer of the flooring is hard and compact, making it difficult for dirt and dust to adhere to it. The flooring is easy to clean and maintain with simple steps provided in the user manual.
Regular Maintenance
The surface layer of Pergo Outlast+ flooring is hard and compact, so dirt and dust do not adhere to it easily. The following simple steps are usually all it takes to keep your floor clean.
- For general cleaning, use a dust mop or vacuum with the correct hard surface attachment of your vacuum cleaner.
- For heavier cleaning, occasionally wet mop with water only, using a well wrung out mop. DO NOT pour liquid directly on floor or use an excessively wet mop that will puddle or leave moisture standing on the floor.
- If needed, use a solution of 1 cup of vinegar per gallon of water OR 1 ⁄3 cup non-sudsing ammonia per gallon of water.
- A residential steam mop may be used provided the steam is applied to a microfiber pad and not applied directly to the floor. Make sure to set the temperature of the steam mop to the appropriate setting for laminate floors, or to the lowest setting. Steam mop in the length direction of the planks only.
- DO NOT use detergents, abrasive cleaners, soaps, waxes or polishes. There is never a need to wax or refinish your Pergo Outlast+ floor.
- DO NOT use rotating beater bars, floor scrubbers, jet mops, buffers or similar products.
Protect the Floor
While Pergo Outlast+ is remarkably durable, there is of course no such thing as an indestructible flooring material. There are a few simple protective measures that are important to keep your floor looking new.
- To protect your Pergo Outlast+ floor from surface scratches, place walk-off area rugs or mats inside any exterior doorway to collect small bits of gravel that may track in on shoes.
- Use felt floor protectors on the legs of chairs, sofas, TV stands, tables and other easily movable furniture.
- Replace plastic casters on chairs with rubber wheels and lift rather than slide heavy objects across the floor.
- Minor damage to a Pergo Outlast+ plank can be easily repaired with Finishing Putty. If the damaged area is larger than 1/4 of an inch, we recommend contacting a professional to replace an entire plank.
Spot Removal
Pergo Outlast+ stain resistance means peace of mind for you and easy clean up. So, when the inevitable happens, use the following guide for stain and spot removal:
-
For chocolate, grease, juice, cordials and wine – use lukewarm water and a non-abrasive cleaner (such as, ammonia and water).
-
For tar, markers, crayon, lipstick, oil, shoe polish, ink, nail polish and cigarette burns – use acetone/nail polish remover or denatured alcohol.
Note: Do not use acetone on wallbase or quarter round. -
For candle wax and chewing gum – let harden and scrape carefully with a blunt plastic scraper.
