Use to damp mop the floor. The soap cuts through any grease or dirt, and the vinegar disinfects.

He said that after mopping the floor (I add Mr. Clean which removes the scuff marks and dirt really fast), to use a wide ( mine is 24") dust mop and spray dust off on it and then dust the whole floor. It leaves it shiny. This is all I have done to my floors now for 14 years and they still look great.

Just boil your water with two or three large teabags and let it cool off then wash your floor with that. It's something about the tanic acid in the tea that helps the floors.I do not remember who told me to try this but, I'm glad I did.
