Q & A with our Experts
Trying a new product? We’ve got you covered! Whether you’re new to Quick Shine® or a longtime fan, here’s everything you need to know about our Multi-Surface Floor Finish and High Traffic Hardwood Floor Luster—both designed to bring your floors back to life.
What do these products do?
Our water-based formulas dry to a hard, glossy finish, adding shine and slip resistance to sealed floors. Apply in thin layers, let dry for 30–45 minutes between coats, and avoid water exposure for 4–5 days to allow full curing.
What’s the difference between Floor Finish & Hardwood Luster?
- Floor Finish: Ideal for all sealed hard floors.
- Hardwood Luster: Contains carnauba wax for extra depth and shine on hardwood floors.
How do I clean my floors after applying Quick Shine®?
For the first 4–5 days, use a dry dust mop only. After curing, clean with Quick Shine® Floor Cleaners and a microfiber mop—no flood-mopping!
Can I use Quick Shine® on all floor types?
- Laminate & engineered hardwood: Yes, apply in thin coats.
- Oil-based floors: No, our water-based formulas won’t adhere.
- Outdoor areas & garages: Not recommended.
What if I see streaks or white spots?
- Streaks: Likely caused by residue or improper application. Apply an extra coat to even it out.
- White spots: Caused by water during curing. Let dry overnight, then reapply a thin layer over the affected area.
Can I buff or steam clean my floors after applying Quick Shine®?
- Buffing: Only recommended for Hardwood Luster, not Floor Finish.
- Steam Cleaning: Not recommended—it can weaken the finish.
With Quick Shine®, achieving beautiful, long-lasting floors is simple. Just apply, let dry, and enjoy the shine! ✨
After a few days of applying quick shine on my floor tiles, I am starting to get white spots appear it looks like drips of water, some larger than others, just wondering what would cause this and how to get rid of it.
Hi Stewart,
If Quick Shine Finish has not fully cured prior to moisture sitting on the surface (damp mopping or water spills) the moisture can absorb into the Finish leaving white water spots behind. To correct this issue, you can spot treat the affected areas with our Quick Shine Deep Cleaner. Simply apply solution to the area, allow solution to sit for 3-4 minutes and wipe away. Once the area is clean and dry, you can reapply our Finish to that area to even out the shine again. For additional assistance, please contact customer service at 800-255-1891. We are always happy to help!
I used Quick Shine on my dull 20 year old Corian counter tops. I first cleaned them with comet and a blue scrubber sponge and rinsed them, then
dried them. The comet did an amazing job. Elbow grease. Make certain to rinse and dry thoroughly!! Patience. Prep is key to a great result. Then applied 4 to 5 coats of Quick Shine. They look amazing.
I even applied inside my sinks that are also corian, and are still looking fantastic after months of daily use. The key is cleaning them first with a powder cleaner and rinsing and drying. I used Ajax with bleach. 99 cents for a can. Very happy with the results. They shine like brand new. And the scratches have completely disappeared. I saved a small fortune not having them refinished.
Thanks for sharing your experience Cindy!
I applied your quick shine to my floors. It took 3 days. But there are some cloudy spots. What causes this? I’ve tried to go over those spots again with a couple more coats but still cloudy. What can I do to fix this and have it not happen again??
Hi SherriAnn,
Cloudy spots can occur if residue is preventing the finish from bonding to that area. If the majority of the floor is shiny, the formula itself is not compromised. To correct your situation, we recommend spot treating the affected areas with Quick Shine Deep Cleaner or Ammonia and HOT water. With either solution, apply to small sections at a time and allow solution to sit for 3-4 minutes and mop or wipe away. Quick Shine Deep Cleaner is only available online at this time at http://www.quickshine.net or http://www.walmart.com. For more information, please contact customer service at 800-255-1891.

I used Quick shine@ hard wood floor luster for my hard wood floor. But the floor looks like fog and dirty if I stand at the door.How can I remove it?
Hi Grace,
You can safely remove our Finish from your floors with Quick Shine Deep Cleaner. Simply apply solution to a 5′ section at a time, allow solution to sit for 3-4 minutes and mop away. Once the floor is clean and dry, you can reapply our Finish to achieve the WOW Factor. Certain cleaners can leave residue behind which prevents our Finish from adhering properly to the floor and can dry cloudy. For additional assistance, please contact customer service at 800-255-1891. We are always happy to help!
I have used the Quick Shine hardwood floor luster. My husband and others say the floors are way too shiny and don’t need to use again for a long time.
They want them to not be so shiny on the real wood floors. What do I do for some of the shine to go away. How do.i clean without getting streaks and spots.
I just want to clean the floor without the luster and having to use another other product that cleans and leaves the luster
Hi Barbara,
You can safely remove Quick Shine Hardwood Floor Luster with our Quick Shine Deep Cleaner to provide a clean surface. Another alternative is to allow foot traffic to slowly wear down the shine over several months. To clean, we recommend our Quick Shine Floor Cleaner (blue label) as it is pH neutral and will not streak or leave dull residue behind. For more information, please contact customer service at 800-255-1891. We are always happy to help!
I have looked at many of the retail stores you list as carrying your products. I have found no store that has
inventory of your deep clean product. Where can I buy it??
Hi Mike,
Unfortunately at this time, we only carry our Quick Shine Deep Cleaner online at http://www.walmart.com or http://www.quickshine.net. Retailers have not purchased that product for stores. Please let us know if you need assistance.

I applied quick shine to my bathroom linoleum floor and now it’s very slippery. How can I fix that. (I used mr. clean to clean it before.
Hi Carol,
Quick Shine contains anti-slippage agents in the formula and should not feel slippery. To correct your situation as it appears the finish reacted to the Mr. Clean product you used, we recommend removing our Finish with Quick Shine Deep Cleaner. Simply dilute our Deep Cleaner with hot water and apply to 5′ sections at a time. Allow solution to sit for 3-4 minutes and mop away. Quick Shine Deep Cleaner is only available online at this time at http://www.quickshine.net or http://www.walmart.com. For more information, please contact customer service at 800-255-1891.

Help!!! We have a vinyl flooring with a cork backing that looks like timber. The cleaner used this product and has left marks everywhere. It looks like she did the “s” pattern as per instructions but from that point on did something wrong either in adding water or leaving it too long between wiping it. We have sold the house and now have a mess on the floor. What do you recommend we do to wipe the wax off! It should never have been put on at all as it is a wood look not wood.
Hi Narelle,
