Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) floors are a fantastic choice for homeowners looking for a durable, stylish, and easy-to-maintain flooring option. However, to keep them looking their best, it's crucial to clean them properly without causing any damage.
One of the best tools for this job is our Microfiber Cinch Mop, a flat mop constructed from heavy-duty hardware and microfiber mop pads. Here’s a comprehensive guide on how to use it effectively.
Microfiber mop pads are made from fine fibers that are incredibly soft yet highly effective at cleaning. These pads are designed to trap and hold dirt, dust, and grime within their fibers, preventing particles from being pushed around and potentially scratching the floor surface.
The gentle nature of microfiber ensures that your luxury vinyl plank (LVP) floors are cleaned without any risk of abrasion, preserving their appearance and finish. Additionally, microfiber is highly absorbent, which means it can pick up spills and moisture effectively, leaving your floors dry and streak-free.
The Cinch Mop is constructed with heavy-duty hardware, ensuring it stands up to regular use without breaking down. This durability means you won't have to frequently replace your mop, saving you money in the long run.
The robust construction also provides stability and reliability during cleaning, making it easier to apply consistent pressure for effective dirt removal. With a mop that’s built to last, you can confidently tackle even the toughest cleaning jobs without worrying about wear and tear.
The flat mop design of the Cinch Mop is particularly advantageous for cleaning LVP floors. Its slim profile allows it to easily reach under furniture, into tight corners, and along baseboards where dirt and dust often accumulate.
This design ensures that every part of your floor gets the attention it needs, resulting in a more thorough clean. The flat mop head provides a larger surface area for cleaning, allowing you to cover more ground with each swipe, making the cleaning process quicker and more efficient.

Before mopping, it's essential to remove any loose dirt and debris from your floors. Use a broom, dust mop, or vacuum with a hard floor attachment to sweep the entire surface. This step is crucial as it prevents dirt particles from being dragged across the floor, which can cause scratches.
Secure the clean microfiber pad to the mop head. Ensure it's properly attached to prevent it from coming loose during mopping. A well-attached pad ensures even coverage and maximizes the cleaning efficiency.
Opt for a mild, non-abrasive cleaning solution to avoid damaging the LVP finish. Harsh chemicals can strip the protective layer and cause the floor to lose its sheen. Our Genie Sheets are an excellent choice as they are plant-based and eco-friendly, providing a powerful clean without harmful residues.
Follow the instructions on the cleaning solution for proper dilution. Overly concentrated solutions can leave streaks or a sticky residue, while too much water can seep into the seams and potentially damage the flooring. A well-diluted solution ensures effective cleaning without adverse effects.

Our Microfiber Mop Pads fit onto our Cinch Mop and can effectively dust, damp, and wet mop your floors effortlessly. Comes in four colors.
Lightly dampen the microfiber pad with the diluted cleaning solution or water. Avoid soaking it, as excess water can penetrate the seams of LVP floors and cause swelling or warping. A lightly damp microfiber mop pad is sufficient to clean effectively without risking water damage.
Work in manageable sections, starting from one corner of the room and moving towards the exit. This method ensures you don’t walk on the freshly cleaned areas, preventing footprints and ensuring an even clean. It also helps in systematically covering the entire floor without missing spots.
Apply gentle pressure while mopping. The microfiber pad’s design allows it to lift and trap dirt without the need for excessive force. Pressing too hard can potentially damage the floor or wear out the microfiber pad prematurely. Gentle, consistent pressure is enough to achieve a thorough clean.
After mopping, go over the floor with a dry microfiber pad to remove any excess moisture. This step is crucial as it helps prevent water spots and ensures a streak-free finish. Drying the floor also reduces the risk of slipping and maintains the integrity of the LVP flooring.
Incorporate regular sweeping or vacuuming into your cleaning routine to keep dirt and debris at bay. Regular maintenance reduces the need for frequent deep cleaning, preserving the floor’s appearance and extending its lifespan.
After each use, wash the microfiber pads in the machine with a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can coat the fibers and reduce their effectiveness. Clean pads ensure optimal performance for each use and prevent any build-up of residues.
Regularly check the mop’s hardware for any signs of wear and tear. Ensuring the mop is in good condition will prolong its lifespan and maintain its cleaning efficiency. Tighten any loose parts and replace worn-out components as needed to keep the mop functioning at its best.
Mojave Microfiber Dust Mop Pad
Our Mojave Microfiber Dust Mop Pads fit onto our Cinch Mop and can be used to sweep (or dust) your luxury vinyl plank floors. The microfiber traps the tiniesy dust particles and leaves floors ready for damp mopping.
Abrasive cleaners, such as those containing bleach, ammonia, or harsh chemicals, can damage the surface of luxury vinyl plank (LVP) flooring. These products can strip away the protective finish, causing the floor to look dull and potentially leading to discoloration.
Additionally, abrasive scrubbing tools or brushes with stiff bristles can scratch and scuff the surface, leaving permanent marks. Instead, opt for gentle, pH-neutral cleaners like our All Purpose Genie Sheets, which are designed to clean effectively without harming the floor’s finish.
Always test any new cleaning product in an inconspicuous area first to ensure it does not cause any damage.
Promptly cleaning up spills and stains is crucial in maintaining the pristine appearance of LVP floors. Liquids left on the surface can seep into seams and edges, potentially causing the planks to swell or warp over time.
Stains, especially from acidic substances like wine, vinegar, or juice, can set in and become more challenging to remove if not addressed immediately. Keep a microfiber cloth handy to quickly wipe up any spills.
For tougher stains, a gentle spot cleaning with a diluted cleaning solution should suffice. Regular quick clean-ups prevent long-term damage and keep your floors looking immaculate.
Furniture legs can cause significant scratches and dents on LVP floors, especially when heavy items are moved. To prevent this, place protective pads under all furniture legs.
These pads are typically made of felt or rubber and create a barrier between the furniture and the floor. They allow furniture to glide smoothly across the surface without causing damage.
Regularly check and replace the pads as they can wear out over time. For heavy furniture that is frequently moved, consider using wider pads or floor protectors to distribute the weight more evenly and further reduce the risk of scratches.
By following these steps and utilizing our Microfiber Cinch Mop, you can keep your luxury vinyl plank floors looking pristine without any risk of damage. Regular maintenance and the right tools are key to preserving the beauty and longevity of your LVP flooring.
