A sparkling clean home often starts with the basics: the floor. But how do you keep your floor matte, free from stains, and easy to maintain? With the right cleaning routine and effective products from the James range, you’ll enjoy a beautifully matte result for longer—without hassle. In this blog, you’ll discover the best approach for cleaning, maintaining, and protecting floors, furniture, and interior textiles—especially for quality-conscious consumers who value reliability.
The power of a truly matte floor
A matte floor has a natural look, appears chic, and feels pleasant underfoot. Still, it can be tricky to maintain that matte appearance, as improper cleaning quickly leads to a shiny layer or dull spots. Dust, dirt, and stains are the main culprits. Fortunately, the right products offer a solution.
Common challenges in floor care
- Build-up of (shine) layers due to incorrect cleaners
- Stubborn stains, such as red wine or grease
- Rapid wear of the matte finish
- Safety around pets and children
Step-by-step plan: Effectively clean and keep your floor matte
Step 1: Clean with the right base cleaner
Always start with a clean slate. The James Basisreiniger removes grease, dirt, and old care layers that often secretly add shine. Use this product for a periodic deep clean or right after installing a new floor.
Step 2: Apply matte protection
Want the true matte effect? Then choose James Extra Mat. This care layer structurally protects your floor from external influences, without adding shine. Thanks to the easy application, the result is instantly visible and tangible.
Step 3: Weekly maintenance—quick, easy, and streak-free
For daily cleaning, choose a product that leaves no shine, cleans streak-free, and dries quickly. The James Vinyl & PVC Cleaner Clean & Quick Dry is ideal for this. It keeps the matte look and freshness, without the risk of stains or streaks.
- Vacuum or sweep the floor first
- Use a damp, well-wrung mop
