Luxury vinyl is designed to be low-maintenance and does not require waxing. Most vinyl products have a factory-applied polyurethane or ceramic bead coating. Applying wax makes the surface look dull over time and creates a sticky film that captures debris, making the floor significantly harder to clean in the long run.

Can I use floor wax on luxury vinyl?
No, you should not use floor wax on luxury vinyl. Modern luxury vinyl planks come with a factory-applied, low-maintenance protective wear layer. Applying wax or polish will create a slippery residue that attracts dirt and ruins the authentic finish of the floor.
