Quick Answer
What is Super SPC Collection Millau SPC 14mm?
This Millau is a pale whitewashed plank in the 14mm Super SPC build, with a 30 mil commercial wear layer. It is a wood-look print over a stone-polymer core, not wood. Its character is restraint: a near-white surface with only ghosted cathedral grain, which makes it the clean, graphic version of a whitewashed floor, suited to rooms where you want the walls, art, and furniture to carry the scene.
Is it waterproof?
Yes — 100% waterproof. A splash at the sink or a dropped glass wipes up without harming Super SPC Collection Millau SPC 14mm when cleaned promptly; don't leave water standing. Indoor use only — outdoor installation is not approved.
Will it hold up to daily life?
Super SPC Collection Millau SPC 14mm has a 30 mil protective layer — thicker than the roughly 12-mil mid-tier and 6-mil entry-level LVT wear layers. That's the physical protective film above the print, sealed by finish.
What does the plank surface look like?
Each plank in this Millau shows long sweeping cathedral grain as a faint, ghosted figure drifting across an otherwise near-white surface, with no knots and a printed finish. The 30 mil commercial wear layer over the 14mm SPC core is the thickest wear surface in the line and stands up well to traffic, while keeping the look clean and uniform.
Quiet enough upstairs or in a condo?
The 2mm IXPE anti-microbial acoustic layer damps the hollow "click" sound characteristic of floating floors. Super SPC Collection Millau SPC 14mm installs quieter than LVT with a loose pad — both for the walker and for rooms below in multi-story homes.
Is it safe for indoor air?
Yes — Super SPC Collection Millau SPC 14mm carries GREENGUARD Gold, FloorScore, Responsible Source (SCS Global) Certified, UNILIN, Lacey Act Compliant, Phthalate Free, EPA TSCA Title VI Compliant, CARB Phase 2 Compliant certifications, independently tested for low chemical emissions. That matters most for households with allergies, asthma, or young children.
Will this color work in my room?
This Millau is a neutral whitewash, so it stays bright and light under almost any light without leaning warm or cool. In bright daylight it reads crisp and near-white; under lamps it softens slightly but stays pale. It pairs with black, blush, and natural fibers, and against bright-white walls it gives a tonal, gallery-like base that lets high-contrast art and dark accents stand out.

Overview
Millau in the 14mm build is a pale whitewashed plank with a crisp, clean surface and a neutral cast. The grain is barely there by design: long sweeping cathedral lines drift across the boards as a soft, ghosted figure, so the floor reads almost solid white from a distance and only shows its movement up close. We photographed this Millau in a Scandinavian living room with a monochrome gallery wall, where the whitewashed floor under bright daylight made the black-and-white art and the beige sofa read sharply. Built on a 14mm SPC core that is 100% waterproof and scratch-resistant, with a 30 mil commercial wear layer, this is the substantial, gallery-clean version of a whitewashed floor.
A pale whitewashed floor with ghosted cathedral grain, clean enough to let art and furniture lead.

Installation
Super SPC Collection Millau SPC 14mm's manufacturer installation specifications. Care follows in its own section.
Acclimation
Acclimate the planks 24-48 hours in a climate-controlled space; keep the room 65-85F for at least 48 hours before, during, and after installation. Store cartons flat, ends open, no more than 3-5 high.
Climate & humidity
Maintain a room temperature of 65-85F for at least 48 hours before, during, and after installation. Maintain indoor relative humidity between 40% and 70% after installation.
Subfloor flatness & prep
The substrate must be dry, clean, smooth, and flat - level within 3/16in over a 10-ft radius - and free of movement or deflection. Installs over wood, cured concrete, gypsum underlayment, or most existing single-layer hard-surface floors; never over carpet, cushioned-back resilient, or floating floors. New concrete slabs must cure for at least 90 days before installation.
Moisture testing
Concrete moisture vapor transmission must not exceed 8 lbs/1000 sq ft/24 hr (ASTM F-1869); internal relative humidity must not exceed 85% (ASTM F-2170).
Method
Installs as a glueless floating floor with an angle-tap click locking system; maintain a 5/16in (8.2mm) expansion gap at all walls and vertical objects, and stagger end joints a minimum of 8in. Indoor use only.
Underlayment
Planks have an attached underlayment - do not add a separate underlayment beneath them.
Radiant heat compatibility
Compatible with embedded radiant-heat subfloors (heating element at least 1/2in below the floor); run the system 21 days prior, turn it off 24 hours before and after installation, then raise the temperature gradually over 7 days. Maximum subfloor surface temperature is 85F.
Care & maintenance
Keeping Super SPC Collection Millau SPC 14mm looking its best takes very little — the manufacturer care guidance is below.
Maintenance
Sweep or vacuum regularly with the beater bar off, and damp-mop with clean water and a vinyl-safe cleaner; wring out surplus water so the floor dries within a minute. Do not use polishes, waxes, or abrasive or ammonia-based cleaners.
Avoid
Rubber- or plastic-backed rugs (use felt), prolonged direct sunlight (use drapes or blinds), continuous indoor temperatures above 95F, abrasive or ammonia cleaners, and unclipped pet nails or untipped high heels.
Furniture protection
Use felt protectors under furniture legs and wide rubber casters with nonstaining mats under rolling chairs; slide a 1/8in Masonite sheet under heavy appliances when moving them.
Climate & humidity
Avoid prolonged direct sunlight; continuous indoor temperatures over 95F combined with strong sunlight can damage the floor.
UV exposure (rooms with many windows)
Sustained direct sun can fade any hard-surface floor over time, so high-exposure rooms benefit from a window treatment.
Pro tip: In south-facing or many-window rooms, light-filtering window film or shades cut the UV reaching the floor and protect nearby furniture and area rugs at the same time.
Frequently asked questions
How do I estimate how much flooring I need?
Pro tip: Don't shortchange the 10% buffer. If you end up with 3-5 extra cartons, keep them — don't return them. Even if you reorder the same SKU in 3 months, it'll be a different manufacturing batch with slightly different tone and grain. It won't match your existing floor. The extras are insurance against leaks, furniture damage, or cracks down the road.
Can I install SPC myself?
Most common case: DIY is allowed, but install mistakes (missed expansion gap, bad subfloor prep, wrong stagger, skipped moisture barrier) void that portion of coverage. Material defects from the manufacturer remain covered.
A few brands go further — their warranty requires "professional installation by a licensed contractor" as a coverage condition, so any DIY = warranty void even without mistakes. Check your brand's warranty language before deciding.
Pro tip: when a claim is filed, the manufacturer sends a licensed flooring inspector. DIY that followed manufacturer spec to the letter passes inspection; DIY that cut corners won't. We recommend: price out a licensed contractor quote first, read your warranty carefully, and decide based on your comfort with the procedure — not just labor savings.
Will it work in my basement?
Layer 1 — concrete moisture epoxy applied directly to the slab (manufacturer-approved liquid-applied membrane). Reduces vapor transmission well below the slab moisture limit this floor requires (measured per ASTM F1869 — see the Installation section for the exact figure).
Layer 2 — 6-mil polyethylene sheeting on the cured epoxy. The epoxy resists normal slab conditions; the plastic above is insurance against slab cracks from settling or seismic movement (common in older Bay Area homes built on fill). If the slab cracks in year 12, the plastic stops moisture before it reaches your SPC.
Cost: $600-1,100 for a typical basement vs $50-100 for plastic alone. For a floor lasting 20+ years in a moisture-prone slab, double protection pays for itself the first time the slab shifts.
How does SPC compare to real hardwood?
A genuine hardwood investment means solid hardwood, or engineered hardwood with 3mm+ veneer. That veneer thickness is the threshold where the floor becomes refinishable (2-3 refinishes over 50+ years, updated stain colors as trends shift). Appraisers factor genuine hardwood into home value; they don't factor SPC.
Caveat: budget engineered hardwood with 1-2mm veneer shares SPC's non-refinishable, 20-25 year practical life — but unlike SPC it is not waterproof, and unlike genuine hardwood with a 3mm+ veneer it cannot be refinished, so SPC stays the better pick for kitchens, baths, and basements. If you're paying hardwood prices, verify the veneer spec. Kapriz carries both categories; the right choice depends on your rooms and refinishing expectations.

How fast does it ship?
What's your return policy?
Always covered at no cost: manufacturing defects, wrong product shipped, delivery damage documented on receipt. Call (408) 753-3220 to report.
Why not returnable by default: reverse freight on a pallet runs $300–800 with damage risk through 6 handoffs — Kapriz carries that exposure.
Rare written exceptions: 25% restocking fee + customer pays freight. Never for opened cartons, custom orders, or discontinued runs.
Pro tip: call (408) 753-3220 to arrange a sample loan before a large order — confirm the color is in the showroom (inventory rotates).
