I was almost ready to put down some new linoleum in my kitchen. Regular mopping had not cleaned it and the dirt seemed grounded in. I mopped again in preparation, but this time I made up my own cleaning solution... 50% Bleach, 50% Water and some liquid dishwashing detergent. Wow, it took up all the dirt. It looks like new. I can hardly believe it.

Right on Linne, my old dish soap had ammonia! I stopped using it when i saw the bleach warning.

liquid dishwashing detergent and bleach will not kill you, amonia and bleach will. judy's mix was a great idea and a safe way to clean linoleum floors.

just read the back of the bleach, said not to mix with other acid products such as toilet cleaners, amonia and rust removers???

Read the Bottle & Never do this again. The fumes could have Killed You. Never Mix Dish Detergent with Bleach or Ammonia!
A Clean Floor will Never be worth Dying For!
