Abrasive cleaners and harsh chemicals are the primary enemies of luxury vinyl floors. Soap-based cleaners leave a sticky residue that attracts more dirt, while ammonia and bleach can degrade the protective finish over time. Always stick to recommended manufacturer-approved, pH-neutral cleaning solutions.
