| Read the posts about the haze on laminate floors. I was wondering since I am considering installing this type of floor, once the floor is all cleaned and dried why couldn't it be coated with a clear polyurethane finish? I have read this finish is put on painted floors and lasts a long time. Then possibly the haze wouldn't stick and would come up with regular mopping. I think it would be worth a try in one tiny, not seen corner to see if it worked. Like maybe a 6 by 6 inch square or something. |

| Because (good) laminate is tough as nails and doesn't need a poly coating. |

| I think you would void your warranty. |

| Use vinegar and water to clean it and you won't have any haze |
|
| The laminate I've seen comes pre-finished with a very shiny coat. Call the manufacturer. |

| You would ruin the floor if you poly it. Look into Bruce Park Ave. Laminate that looks and feels like hard wood with a very pretty shine. |

| I use a spray bottle filled with water to spritz on my laminate floors and then wipe with a microfiber mop I have. No haze, no streaks. This is the one I have. Kathy G in MI |
