I looked up on reading and asked my boyfriend ( who is a chemist). He said not exact quotes so sorry if i am wrong ( i am just a civil engineering student not a fan of chemistry) if you have a polyurethane coated wood floor both oil soap, and vinegar is bad. "The vinegar will create abrasions on the top coat in time" and i guess the oil soap just puts a layer of residue on top of the wood. SO the best bet is to go with a cleaner that is specific for hard wood floors. what ever that means. ( I also didnt tell him i have been using oil soap for a year now LOL)
