Quick and Cheap Solution: How to Make Scratched Parquet Shine Again
Damaged parquet can easily spoil the appearance of even the neatest space. Before you immediately think of expensive and demanding sanding, it would be good to pause and check if you already have a solution at home.
TL;DR
- Fabric softener can be used to repair minor scratches and restore shine to lacquered parquet floors.
- Mix two capfuls of fabric softener with warm water, soak a microfiber cloth, wring it out, and wipe the damaged areas, then the entire floor.
- For deeper scratches, a walnut kernel can be rubbed directly into the scratch to fill and even out the color.
- Avoid using too much fabric softener to prevent a sticky residue.
- These methods are cost-effective and avoid the dust and expense of professional sanding.
