Wipe the damaged part of the floor with a clean damp cloth. Cleaners that contain harsh and aggressive chemicals can strip the shine off your laminate floor and make it look faded. Sweep your floor a couple of times a week if not every day to remove debris from your flooring. Then press a shallow layer into the chip.

Don t try to fill the entire chip in one application. Laminate floor can scratch easily so don t use scrubbing pads or abrasive cleaners to maintain the floor. If your kit comes with ingredients that should be mixed together to form a putty or other filler follow the manufacturer s instructions. This method works for minor chips and scratches that can be repaired with putty or a marker specifically made to repair laminate flooring.

The next step to restore laminate flooring is to clean with the right cleaning agent. First use a sample of your laminate flooring if you have one to find a touch up or repair kit in a matching color. To make your floor appear shiny again it is important that use a good laminate cleaner. Next squeeze a dollop of laminate repair paste onto a scrap piece of flooring or a mixing board and mix it with a putty knife until it begins to dry.

Abrasive scrubbers include steel wool scrubbing pads and scrubbing sponges. Let the floor dry completely before you proceed. Those little bits of rock and dirt that hangs on to your shoes can become ground into your laminate causing micro scratches on the surface.
