When the rinse water gets dirty, empty and refill. This way you are always starting out with a rinsed clean mop. I always allow my floors air dry. You can use any type of mop and cleaning mixture. This is the mixture that I use.
Floor All Purpose Cleaner: Do not use on wood or laminated flooring. Great for tile and no-wax floors.
In a one gallon jug add in this order and mix gently. If you add the cleaners first, before the water, it will be very sudsy.
This can be used as a floor cleaner or as an all-purpose cleaner. I always have a few spray bottles around the house.
The worst treatment for a floor is to "swab it", meaning using too much water or cleaner that lays on the flooring.
For Laminate Floors: Use one cup of white vinegar to 2 gallons of warm water or recommended cleaner from manufacturer.
For Wood Floors: Use a diluted solution of Murphy's Oil cleaner or any other wood floor cleaner.
Source: Method of wash is from a floor installer, recipe is from "Consumers Report" magazine.
