Polygood is a durable, versatile surface used in retail, countertops, wall cladding, and furniture, both commercial and residential. Cleaning needs vary by application, pattern, and finish.

Polygood comes in three finishes: glossy, matte, and satin. Some care guidelines apply to all, while others are finish-specific.

✅ Routine cleaning

Wipe with a soft microfiber cloth and mild, pH-neutral multi-surface or glass cleaner (e.g., LiquidSense™, Insta-Use™, KAY®, ECOLAB®, Diversey™, Method®, Seventh Generation®). Always test cleaners on a hidden area.

❌ Avoid

• Harsh solvents: acetone, thinners, alcohol (>70%), bleach, ammonia
• Acidic cleaners: vinegar, citric acid, limescale removers
• Abrasive tools: scouring pads, steel wool, scrapers
• High-pressure or steam cleaning

✅ Grease removal

Mild degreasers safe for plastics (e.g., LiquidSense™ Heavy Duty, ECOLAB®, Diversey™) or diluted dish soap.

✅ Mildew

In damp, poorly ventilated areas, mildew may appear. Ensure good ventilation and regular cleaning. If mildew occurs, use mild peroxide-based cleaners safe for plastics and rinse thoroughly.

✨ Care by Finish

• Glossy finish → Highly stain-resistant; wipe spills promptly. For dullness or fine scratches, use plastic-safe polishes (e.g., Novus®, Plexus®) with soft cloths, following product instructions.
• Matte finish → Hard, good stain-resistant, ready-to-use finish. Persistent stains may require light buffing — but buffing will smooth the texture and shift the appearance to satin. Buff the entire surface for consistency.
• Satin finish → More sensitive to staining; may need occasional light buffing to restore uniformity.
