How hot should the mop water be?
It’s best to use hot water (but not boiling) and a very dry mop. Be sure to use a only cleaning products that are recommended for your finish. Avoid using harsh cleaners, such as bleach (as it is acidic) and can cause floors to look a bit dull over time… If in doubt, ask your installer.
How damp is damp?
When there is no longer any water droplets’ coming out of your mop when you wring it, but it still feels moist.
Will damp mopping clean my floor?
Yes, it can. Often hot water will be enough. For very dirty floors or particularly stubborn stains use a little bit of recommended floor cleaner. Don’t use too much cleaner though – a small amount is usually enough.You can effectively clean your floor without much effort.
What’s the best way to mop my floor?
When mopping, don’t forget to first remove the dust and dirt on your floor using a broom or a vacuum cleaner. This can make your job a lot easier. Wipe your floor in the direction of the installation (the direction your floor has been installed in) – this will give you the best results – no smears or streaks at all!
