Everyday cleaning of Wood Floors?

Question

I have cleaned and shined my Pergo type wood floor (not Pergo name brand) in the bedroom to a nice shine. Now I need to know what to use on my dustmop to attract and hold the dust on a as needed basis. I am not sure how furniture dusting polish would do with my cleaner. I used "Orange-glo Wood Cleaner and Polish".

Answer 1

don't put anything on your dust mop. just dust the floor every day and it will be fine. also when you decide to mop the floor use a damp mop only. don't put any excess water on the floor and use Murphy's wood soap in the mop water. put in only a small amount and it will bring your floor to a nice shine.

Wood Floor Maintenance
Most wood floors can be kept clean by first sweeping or vacuuming with a floor nozzle to remove most of the surface dust and dirt, then damp mopping with clear water (dip a sponge in clear water, squeezing it out so that the mop is barely damp, almost dry). Use very little water and rinse your mop thoroughly after each use since excess water can dissolve protective coatings, alter the color of the wood and raise the grain to roughen the surface.

If your floors are not dirty enough to need mopping every week, then you should not do it, as it will wear the floors faster, not to mention waste your time. Simply sweeping is often all they need.

If need to restore the shine to your wood floor after you get it clean, try damp mopping it with 1/2 cup vinegar and 2 tablespoons furniture polish in a gallon of warm water. Vinegar is also useful for removing any soap residue or build-up, but should not be necessary every week. :)
