Question 6

I'm interested in the Amorin product, but I've read the cleaning instructions and it seems like a lot of work to restore the floor to it's natural state if it gets dull. Is it really such a task or does the floor take a long time to reach a dull state? Also, I would be installing this product on a porch that is not temperature controlled. Will this product hold up?

Question 8

Planning a kitchen install. My original floor is wall to wall, including under cabinets, appears to be Armstrong linoleum sheet flooring. As I plan to remove the cabinets to have them re-finished, I would like to do another wall to wall installation. I understand a floating floor does not lend itself to be placed under fixed furnishings. While I have seen reference to installing this floor as a floating floor over linoleum, can this product be installed as a glue-down directly over the original linoleum, assuming it is flat, smooth, and sound, or will I need to go down to the original subfloor if I am planning a wall to wall glue-down installation? I have read the standard and glue-down installation guides and do not see a clear answer. View answer
