Alternatives To Manufacturer's Hardwood Floor Cleaner |
|

Does anyone have a really good way to clean pre-finished hardwood floors other than purchasing the expensive manufacturer's brand of cleaner? It costs me a fortune to use their cleaner and I know someone must have the solution.

I agree with the tea tip. I have used it on my wood floors and furniture for years. I brew a bag or two, depending on how dark the wood is, let the tea cool, dip in a rag and clean, then use another cloth to dry....I just wring the rag out good when doing the floor, I only go over with a dry cloth when doing furniture. The tea treatment is actually good for wood, and it looks gorgeous!

Method Almond floor cleaner is awesome but might be expensive for some. I buy it in bulk whenever possible. Does not harm the environment, works great, and smells awesome.

Not a cleaning tip , but just remember if there is a warranty on the floor that it will be void if you don't follow their directions. We were going to try and get a test floor from where my husband works, but after much discussion and figuring, we just couldn't afford to worry about all the specifics that were required.

I also just use vinegar & water, with some essential oils for scent. Works great, is cheap!

I used to clean houses for extra $$ when I was a full time stay at home momma. I used a vinegar and water mixture to clean hardwoods. Worked wonders!

Make a big post of Tea the night before. The tannin in the tea kills the dust mites.
