What are the best interior wood treatment products?
You invest a fair amount of time, effort, and money in having the perfect wood floor in your home, so of course you’ll want to keep it looking its best for as long as possible. But the reality is that real wooden flooring is as prone as anything else to knocks, scratches and spill, not to mention general wear and tear.
That’s why it makes sense to understand how best to take care of interior wooden floors, plus what the best products are for doing so. In this blog we give an overview of the leading (and most effective) interior wood treatment products.
As you’d expect, a vast range of items are available on today’s market, from oils to polishes and beyond. So when making your choice, it’s important to consider the job you expect the product to do, whether that’s maintenance, cleaning, protection, treatment or anything else. All these aspects are vital to maintaining your wooden floor and keeping it in good condition but, of course, different products will do different things.
Here, we take a look at some of the leading brands and what they are great for.
Interior wood floor maintenance
However much you may try and care for your wood floors, you could still find you need to do some minor upkeep. There are various glues and fillers which can do the job pretty speedily and effectively. We like Osmo’s water-based wood filler. It’s non-toxic and non-acrylic – equally, it won’t crack or shrink.
Alternatively, check out Quick-Step’s maintenance oil, a great product for parquet.
Cleaning wood floors
Cleaning is key as part of your real wooden floor’s upkeep regime. The well-established brand Quick-Step supplies a range of water-resistant interior wood products for a range of flooring types, from cloths and mops to sprays and specialist cleaning products.
Wood floor treatment and protection
You’ll find myriad oils, coatings, and the like on the market for smart-looking interior finishes. For hardwood floors, you’ll need a pretty durable oil to safeguard your surface from general wear plus any liquid damage.
Osmo Polyx®-Oil makes your floor more durable by creating a micro-porous veneer which is robustly water-resistant. Meanwhile, another leading brand, Treatex, offers a great range of hardwax oils as well as an excellent traditional wax polish.
Flooring finishing polish
After treatment of your hardwood flooring, a polish can bring out the timber’s natural qualities while reviving tired sections. Again, Treatex can help with its traditional wax polish, available as clear or brown.
It can be used on both softwood and hardwood. There are also plenty of other similarly high-quality products available on our online store.
