Wood & Laminate Floors

1. Vacuum or Sweep

Always vacuum or sweep to remove dirt and any grit prior to cleaning your wood floors.

2. Spray

Lightly mist a 6' x 6' area of your wood floor with a hardwood floor cleaner , or directly mist the mop's microfiber cloth cover.

3. Wipe

Using a back and forth motion, clean the floor surfaces with your mop or clean microfiber cloth until completely dry. Finish an area before moving on to the next. When your microfiber cloth cover becomes soiled, replace it with a clean one. Continued use of excessively soiled covers may cause streaking. 

When a spill occurs, soak up the liquid promptly, mist the affected area with hardwood floor cleaner and wipe with a mop or a clean soft cloth.

To help maintain your floor, do the following:

• Blot up spills immediately.
• Dust mop floors using an untreated mop and proper wood floor cleaner.
• Use door mats and walk-off mats whenever possible to keep dirt and grit off the floor.

Avoid the following with wood floors:

• DO NOT use powder cleaners or soft cream cleaners (Soft Scrub)
• DO NOT use mold removers (Tile X, X14, etc.) or disinfectants (Lysol).
• DO NOT use furniture polish (Pledge, Jubilee, Endust).
• DO NOT use wax or oil cleaners (Orange Glow, Murphy’s Oil)!
• DO NOT USE VINEGAR!
