BOY DO I FEEL YOUR PAIN!!! Just put laminate in my LR/DR two months ago ...
DON'T use Murphy's! We use it on our hardwoods and vinyl but it's disastrous on the laminate.
We are constantly running the sweeper. (Cat hair, cat litter and the dog tracking both through the house.) Best solution for cleaning: DON'T mop. Or if you do, here's the trick -- you have to BUFF it dry or else you will see all the little smears from the mop!
I bought some Pergo cleaner that you spray on. You are supposed to leave it on for a minute or two and then wipe off. I do this with damp paper towels and then go right back over it with a dry one when I'm doing touch-up on the
main traffic areas.
When I do the whole floor, I do the same thing EXCEPT I use an empty Swiffer head and put the paper towels across it. (Supposedly the Swiffer wipes have something in them that encourages streaking. So I just use plain ole Viva.) |
