How to Maintain Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVT) Flooring with Quick Shine

Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVT) flooring is the latest trend in home design, offering the timeless beauty of real hardwood with the durability to withstand the hustle and bustle of daily life—even in homes with kids, pets, and heavy foot traffic. Its scratch-resistant surface and water-resistant properties make it a top choice for homeowners looking for both style and function. But how do you maintain luxury vinyl plank floors?
With so many benefits, it’s no surprise that one of the most common questions we receive is: “Can I use Quick Shine on my new LVT floors?”
The answer…
Absolutely! Our Quick Shine Multi-Surface Floor Cleaner is pH neutral and the gentlest cleaner. It will not leave behind a dulling residue on your floor like vinegar or other cleaners with lots of surfactants. To make cleaning even easier, this formula does not require a mop and bucket, and no rinsing is necessary. Just squirt and spread with a damp microfiber mop or sponge mop. You can use it in Spray Mops too! An instant clean for truly gratifying results.
If you are interested in providing a higher gloss to your floors because you miss a little sheen that you will not find with the typical matte finish found on New Luxury Vinyl flooring, reach for our Quick Shine Multi-Surface Floor Finish. Another ready-to-use formula you simply squirt and spread for a deep, rich shine.
These two products are free from toxic chemicals, including:
- Ammonia
- Aluminum
- Formaldehyde
- Alcohol
- Paraben
- PFAS (Forever Chemicals)
We proudly wear the Safer Choice label on our Finishes and Cleaners, giving you confidence in a cleaner that’s safer for your home and family. Look for Quick Shine in stores and bring home the shine you can trust!
The quick shine does not work on my luxury vinyl flooring. It looks shiny and beautiful until my dogs leave scratch marks from running around the house. Very disappointed
Hi Anita,
We are sorry to hear this. If you would like to remove our Finish, we recommend Quick Shine Deep Cleaner. Please reach out to customer service at 800-255-1891 for further assistance.
Same thing happened to me I followed all directions and I can see every streak, every spot where I left off, dog scratches everywhere and I’ve spent 9 days now trying to even it out and it gets worse. The floor cleaner made no difference. I’m afraid to try the deep clean. 2300 square feet. $25,000 , Brand new and I’m about to carpet over it.
Hi Debbie,
A compromised shine can safely be removed with Quick Shine Deep Cleaner. Please reach out to customer service at 800-255-1891 for assistance.
I applied Quick Shine to my new vinyl floors. The shine looks great, but I am having trouble with spots appearing that I cannot remove. I have applied more Quick shine, but it seems to not effect the spots. Hope I do not need to remove the application.
Hi Kathy,
You can spot treat the affected area with ammonia and water. Apply solution and let sit 1-2 minutes before wiping away. Once the area is clean and dry, simply reapply the finish to blend and even out the appearance of the floor.
