Laminate wood flooring How do you clean it? I sweep it 100 times a day and still get stuff up like I haven't swept at all. Everything I mop it with seems to leave a sticky film on it.
Things I have tried:
1) Pledge Multi-surface Floor Cleaner - supposed to safely clean wood, ceramic, linoleum/vinyl, no wax floors, and laminate safely and leaving no dulling, oily residue. Got the floor clean, but left the residue.
2.) Murphy's Oil Soap - depends on how I use it. If use it with the mop and let it dry I get residue and water spots. If I use the mop then go back and rinse it really well with hot water, I get the spots and only a little residue. It works perfectly if I get on my hands and knees and wash the floor with a washcloth, then dry with a towel. I have these floors throughout the entire house. I can't clean them on my hands and knees all the time.
3.) White vinegar and hot water - got them clean but the smell was awful and it left water spots. Took forever for the vinegar smell to get out of the house and that's with opening all the windows and running fans and air purifiers.
4.) Just plain hot water - left spots
Now I have found that if I vacuum the floors instead of sweeping them I only have to do it twice a day. Anyone have any suggestions on what to mop it with?
