Yes, some Resolve products can be used on hardwood floors.
Resolve specifically makes Resolve® Urine Destroyer Spray Stain & Odor Remover which is safe for use on hard floors including hardwood. It penetrates to break down, lift and permanently remove tough urine stains.
However, it's crucial to always test any cleaning product in an inconspicuous area first to ensure it doesn't damage or discolor the finish of your hardwood floors. Different finishes may react differently.
Here's what to consider before using Resolve on hardwood:
- Read the product label: Verify that the specific Resolve product you're using is indeed safe for hardwood floors. Look for explicit mentions of "hardwood floors" or "sealed wood floors" on the label.
- Type of Resolve: Not all Resolve products are formulated the same way. Some might be too harsh for hardwood.
- Floor finish: Consider the type of finish on your hardwood. Polyurethane finishes are generally more durable than wax finishes. Wax finishes may be more susceptible to damage from cleaning products.
- Application: Avoid oversaturation. Use a light mist and wipe immediately.
Alternatives to Resolve (if you're unsure):
- Hardwood floor cleaner specifically designed for hardwood floors
- A mixture of mild dish soap and water
- White vinegar and water solution (use sparingly)
By carefully considering these factors and testing the product first, you can help ensure that using Resolve on your hardwood floors is safe and effective.
