FAQ

Measuring for furniture floor protectors can be tricky because a fraction of an inch matters. If clear sleeve furniture floor protectors are what you might want to buy, purchase the Clear Sleeve Sample Kit to find the right fit by using the included tape measure and trying on different sizes. If you are looking to buy flat, peel and stick, felt pads, measure the diameter on the bottom of the furniture leg that it will adhere to and choose the pad closest in size without going larger. For all other types of furniture floor protectors, call for assistance at (877)356-6748 or send a message via the Messenger icon or send an email.

Buy a sample set that provides you with one of each size clear sleeve protector and a measuring tape.

Yes, because Hartco wood floors are impregnated with an acrylic finish, Armstrong Shinkeeper is the right floor polish for these wood floors. This use for Shinekeeper is not stated on the product label because the manufacturer was concerned that it would confuse consumers who have other types of Armstrong hardwood floors. Hartco is now part of Armstrong Flooring. When Pattern Plus Shine was discontinued, Armstrong provided a memo, to 1877FloorGuy, indicating Armstrong Shinekeeper as the correct replacement product for use on Hartco acrylic-impregnated floors. You can download the memo for your reference.

Yes, the item page, on 1877floorguy.com, has links to 2 videos that demonstrate how to use the materials in the Dr Schutz ScratchFix Kit to repair scratches and scuff marks on luxury vinyl flooring.

Yes, Dr Schutz Scratch Fix Kit is designed to fix superficial scratches and scuffs on Luxury Vinyl Tile & Plank floors.

Dr Schutz Scratch Fix Kit repairs the clear wear layer of your floor which is made of polyurethane. Underneath of the clear wear layer is the print film which makes up the various wood or tile patterns, so there is no need to worry about colors matching. Dr Schutz Scratch Fix pen and spray do not contain color, they are both clear and will match the sheen level of most luxury vinyl floors. Sometimes there is a sheen variation that can be adjusted with application technique so we suggest using the Scratch Fix Kit on a scrap piece of flooring or in an inconspicuous area to test application before repairing the scratches on a highly visible area of flooring.

How often your floor is cleaned will depend on how much traffic and activity your floor has. For example - For more traffic / activity you may have to clean your floor daily which is common for commercial facilities including doctor offices and retail stores. For less traffic / activity, as in most homes, you may only need to clean the floor once a week though sweeping more frequently than that may be required.

Yes, we have a special 'Winter Shipping Advisory' on our shipping information page that states, "**Winter Shipping Advisory: Due to adverse weather conditions that occur during the cold weather months of autumn and winter, 1877floorguy.com reserves the right to hold any order containing product that is not freeze thaw stable. This applies to, but is not limited to, acrylic floor polishes and sealers. This may cause a delay in shipping but you will be notified by a customer service rep from 1877floorguy.com if your order is being held."

Most floor cleaning products are stable if they freeze then thaw, meaning they are good for use or "freeze-thaw stable". Flooring finishes and sealers are NOT freeze-thaw stable so if they freeze in transit they are no longer usable. 1877FloorGuy includes heat packs, as needed, in packages that are at risk for freezing when products in the package are not freeze-thaw stable and transit time is taken into account before these packages leave our warehouse. When transit time is likely to exceed the capability of the heat packs, that last up to 96-hours, an order will be held at our warehouse until it possible to ship them for safe arrival at customer locations. Most often, this is just a couple of days delay. Customers will always be notified when there is a shipping delay, via email or telephone call.

Check the list of products that are NOT freeze-thaw stable and may experience a shipping delay during cold weather months. If the item you plan to purchase is not on the list and you are still concerned, call Customer Support to inquire about the specific product.

You may find this in the carton with your order during extremely cold weather. This is a heat pack that is placed in with your product to keep it from freezing while in transit.
