How to Clean Resin-Coated Brick Flooring?
Step-by-step guide for spotless, protected resin-brick floors
Resin-coated brick flooring offers both durability and visual appeal, but keeping it clean and glossy requires a careful approach. In this guide, you will learn the best practices and step-by-step instructions for cleaning resin-coated brick floors—ensuring your surface stays pristine, protected, and shining for years to come.
What You’ll Need
- Strong Technical Degreaser for Resin Projects – 100% Natural Formula: A natural, multi-surface degreaser designed for safely cleaning residue such as grease and silicone without harming resin coatings.
- Pure Isopropyl Alcohol 99.9% – 1000ml Bottle for Epoxy Resin Projects & DIY: A high-purity solvent ideal for removing persistent residues or sticky marks from resin surfaces.
- “Klover-19” – Sanitizing Detergent, Chlorine-Based Cleaner – 5kg: A chlorine-based solution suitable for deeper sanitisation, best for commercial settings or where thorough disinfection is required.
- “Epoxy Polish” – Epoxy Resin Polishing System: Professional-grade system designed to restore gloss and remove micro-scratches from resin-coated flooring.
- Soft-bristled broom or vacuum cleaner
- Microfibre mop and bucket
- Clean, soft cloths or sponges
- Protective gloves (especially when handling chemicals)
Sweep or Vacuum the Surface
The first step in cleaning your resin-coated brick flooring is to remove loose dirt, dust, and debris. Use a soft-bristled broom or a vacuum cleaner with a suitable floor attachment to avoid scratching the resin surface. Focus on corners and grout lines where dust tends to accumulate. Regular sweeping not only preserves the glossy finish but also prevents abrasive particles from causing micro-scratches during mopping. Avoid harsh bristles or beater bars—gentle is best for resin finishes.
Mop with Gentle Detergent
After removing debris, prepare a bucket of warm water mixed with a mild, pH-neutral detergent. Dip a microfibre mop into the solution, wring it thoroughly to avoid excess water, and mop the resin-coated surface in gentle, overlapping strokes. Never use excessive water, as standing liquid can seep into brick joints or underneath resin layers, potentially weakening adhesion. Rinse the mop frequently, and change the water if it becomes cloudy to avoid redepositing dirt.
For areas requiring sanitisation—such as commercial kitchens or high-traffic zones—a chlorine-based cleaner like “Klover-19” – Sanitizing Detergent, Chlorine-Based Cleaner – 5kg can be diluted and used sparingly, following manufacturer recommendations to avoid damaging the resin.
Remove Grease and Stains Carefully
Grease spots or stubborn stains on resin-coated brick can dull the flawless appearance of your floor. For such marks, spot-clean using a natural degreaser. Spray or apply a small amount of Strong Technical Degreaser for Resin Projects – 100% Natural Formula directly onto the affected area, let it sit for a few minutes, then gently wipe with a soft, damp cloth. Rinse the area thoroughly with clean water to remove any residue.
For sticky residues—like adhesive or marker—a touch of Pure Isopropyl Alcohol 99.9% on a cloth can dissolve the blemish without clouding the resin, ensuring the spot is cleaned without unnecessary abrasion.
Restore Gloss and Address Dullness
Over time, even well-maintained resin-coated brick can lose some of its shine. If your floor looks dull or you notice micro-scratches, consider using a polishing system specifically designed for epoxy resin to restore its original brilliance. Apply “Epoxy Polish” – Epoxy Resin Polishing System as per its instructions. Work the polish into the surface using a soft pad or polishing tool, then buff to a lustrous finish.
Always repeat the polishing process only as needed; excessive abrasion can reduce the longevity of the resin layer. Wipe away excess product thoroughly to avoid slipperiness after polishing.
Tips for Ongoing Care and Common Mistakes
To maximise the life and aesthetics of your resin-coated brick floors, avoid harsh chemicals, ammonia, or abrasive cleaning tools that can scratch or compromise the resin. Place mats at entrances to reduce tracked-in grit, and promptly clean spills to prevent staining. Periodically check for chips or cracks in the resin—addressing small repairs quickly will maintain water resistance and a flawless appearance.
