NO! Leaves a white dull film.
I used hot water on a damp mop, worked great
Vinegar and water!!
Mop and Glo is not a good product to use on engineered wood flooring. This because Mop and Glo contains a wax, which can ruin the finish that is already on the floors.
If you use cleaners like Mop & Glo or Orange Glo on your floors than yes you will get a cloudy white film build up. The reason being is that these products have oils in them, that when used over and over again will build up and take away the shine.AnswerYes it can be too much of a build-up or simply the type of product you are using. Go a hardwood dealership and ask them what you can do about this as there are special products for cleaning hardwood floors.
Bona Kemi Hardwood Cleaner
because wood and water dont mix! you should never do anything more than DAMP mop hardwood, if its that dirty get on your hands and knees and scrub it
He used two mops to clean the house - one mop for the hardwood floors, and one mop for the linoleum.
None. You should not use a steam-cleaner on hardwood floors. Water, and especially steam, can damage wood by swelling it at the seams, and then causing it to crack and split later. Use only cleaners approved for hardwood floors, or a window cleaner containing alcohol, or a vinegar/water solution. Mist it onto the floor or onto the head of a damp (not wet!) sponge mop or swiffer-type mop, then wipe clean.
Well, After my wife decide to put Mop and Glo on our new laminate floors we found ourselves in a similar position that you are probably in. I have found that white vinegar and water does the trick just nicely. If you have the residue in the joints as well a quick wipe with the vinegar water and a toothbrush takes the cake!! As for the smell.... I hope you like vinegar!!
Mix 1/2 cup distilled white vinegar in a gallon of warm water. Mop with a sponge mop that has its own ringer. Ring as much water from the mop as possible--leaving water on hardwood floors will damage them.
You can clean hardwood floors without damaging it by first cleaning it like you would clean on tiles. Sweep up the floor for trash and then use a bucket and mop it clean and dry.
One way to get the white film off of wood floors is to use vinegar. All one has to do is mix the vinegar and water together and use a mop as normal.
