Bona is one brand , just make sure you get the correct one for the type of floor you have. I made the mistake of buying the wrong one and took forever to get the haze out, I finally used vinegar and hot water and my floors are shinny now. Just have to put up with the vinegar smell for a day.

Hi Melissa, When we bought our laminated flooring many years ago, we were told to use nothing but vinegar for cleaning them. However, I found you can also use ammonia for those harder stains without damaging the flooring. Now I have found a homemade cleaning product that is superb and doesn't harm the laminate. Recipe: 1/3 c. water, 1/3 c. rubbing alcohol, 1/3 c. white vinegar, 3 drops of Dawn, and 5-50 drops of essential oil if you like. Mix all ingredients together in a spray bottle and shake before using on floors especially if you use essential oils. My floors are looking brand new again and they dry very quickly with the alcohol in the mixture.

I use a similar concoction that CMS suggested in one of her earlier videos. I own a cleaning business and it works beautifully: 1/3 bottle of vinegar, 1 capful of rubbing alcohol, 3 drops of dawn in a spray bottle and top of with water. Spray on a small section and flat mop in the direction of the grain. Floors are clean and shiny and my clients are always complimenting me on how amazing their floors look. I find the commercial products leave the floors feeling slightly sticky, leave a residue over time and are very expensive.

Usually I love your videos bc you suggest homemade solutions that are inexpensive and safer than the store bought chemicals - but in this video you just left it at use manufacturer laminate sprays. I don't know if this was influenced by where you shot the video... Or not.. But i really hope you do a part two as homemade solutions and strategies for laminate flooring is a big problem for many (especially condo dwellers). Thanks for all your other videos, they are and were really helpful. Thanks!

L. I wash all my gkids' stuffed animals in mesh laundry bags on gentle or handwash cycle in front loading washing machine. Do NOT put in dryer with any temperature (most heat will ruin the poly furs!!)... just on fluff cycle a lil bit and then air dry... either in or outside dep. on weather... sun is great dryer and oh they smell so good again!! if you have jumbo size stuffies... handwash (dish soap or laundry detergent) outside or in bathtub... rinse well (hose off), squeeze excess water with towels + finally lay on towels to dry or again... put in sun outside. my clean secret is reg. white distilled vinegar goes in every laundry load wash AND rinse cycle with a lil downy. good luck and clean breathing!! 😄

Claire Bear Me neither. I only know mine are called Floating Floor Boards. I only use a very , very dry mop over them that was dipped in water only and rung out so the mop is almost dry. That gets the dirt off , But I have no idea what the floor boards are made of. I know for sure they are not hard wood. I got them from Bunnings , My son laid them for me in my flat. I’ve had them down for about 4 years. I have some scratches in kitchen where cutlery has fallen on them. Otherwise they have worn well. I paid about $27 a metre for them. Love to know what type of flooring they are ? They are not shiny. More a flat non shiny finish.

If you have laminate and not luxury vinyl plank (which is water-resistant), then all of these tips apply to your floor. She can't show you the thousands of types on here. And even if she did, you wouldn't be able to tell which one is yours unless you know the specific name brand and model.

I'm a professional residential cleaner and do prefer to use some of the spray cleaners, however, we find that you still need to get the microfibre mop at least a little bit damp with water in order to still get the floors CLEAN. Otherwise, if you are not getting the mop pad hot & damp, the sprays just shine the floor but won't sanitize or dissolve things like spilled milk/juice stains, gum, gunk, dried food etc... Just dump the mop pad in the bucket of hot water (we use a few drops of a mild, ph neutral and ecofriendly floor wash that does not harm the finish, wax, wood or laminate and is streak free) and wring out mop pad as much as possible so it is only slightly damp. Then we use the floor spray directly on floor and mop like normal to give the floor a nice shine. (I prefer the Method brand "squirt and mop" to the "BONA" brand).

Hi Melissa when I get haze on my laminate floors (this can happen even when just using vinegar on my laminate) I go back over it with a window cloth shoved into a swifter mop. Somehow the window cloth polishes up the laminate beautifully. I can't say it is an easy process though. It does take some elbow grease. Love, love your videos thanks for the inspiration, keep them up!

Dianne RawGirl here's the thing - the manufacturer is going to tell you to use a specially formulated product, but I also know that if vinegar is used *properly* as you suggest here, it would be OK too...the issue is that manufacturer's can't recommend it because not everyone uses it properly. A formulated cleaner is essentially fool-proof which is why it is recommended. However if you can figure out a way to make vinegar work as you have, then it's all good. Make sense?

Two questions for you: 1. How to mop the balcony floor in an easy way and how to keep it clean? (it gets dirt all the time!!) 2. We hang and air our clothes on the balcony. Because the airer gets direct sunlight, it gets rusty easily. How to get rid of that? Thanks heaps!!!

My biggest frustration is with my large tile squares. The tile itself is easy to clean and durable, but the grout between the tiles is maddening! It's a conspiracy! Well, at the very least, it's just a reservoir for debris to get stuck in when I'm sweeping the floor, not to mention having to deep-clean it line by line. :( I've begun to vacuum our tile floors each day (did I mention I have 4 teen boys at home?) and that's helpful, but imho, grout is eeeee-vil! Haha. Hope you had fun here in the States!

Currently I have tile right in front of the door, then laminate as a walk way into the kitchen and laminate in the kitchen as well and lastly carpet in the living room area. This is too many different types of floor for this space. I would like to choose one option for the entire area. What are your thoughts?

The Swiffer floor dry mop does get into small spaces and does pick up debris. However, it takes many long and painstaking tries to get everything off. I mean hours of laborious tries. Do you have any recommendations to speed up the process and to make it any easier. I mean it takes sometimes up to 50 swiffer passes until it does not pickup ant more. Please advise and thank you in advance.

I was just about to send you a message asking the same questions you answered. I've been busy laying new flooring this week and am so in love with my new floors and want them to stay looking their best that I still have a couple questions. I have 3 dogs and 2 cats and wanted to know what are the best brooms, vacuums and mops to use on laminate. Right now I have a dyson DC07 with a hard floor attachment but I'm afraid it'll scratch the floor being dragged around and also have a Rubbermaid reveal microfiber mop. I hate all the swifter products only due to having to buy replacement pads. With all my animals, one tween girl and all the neighborhood kids and a husband that works for the railroad that gets expensive when I'm cleaning every other day if not everyday. Thank you. I love 💖all your videos.

Hi Melissa. One thing that is a big no no in cleaning laminate flooring that is not mentioned is the popular steam mops. When using these on laminate flooring they will actually VOID the homeowners warranty. The biggest drawback to installing hardwood, engineered wood and wood look laminate is the problem of moisture seeping through the seams and causing major lifting and swelling problems. Just an FYI I thought you'd like to pass on. Love your videos! Kim

We have Chinese slate in our kitchen and as the flooring for our inglenook fireplace so they would get a lot of soot. We have recently moved in so not sure of the best way to look after them! Thanks!

use 4 to 1 ratio water and vinegar...I get on my knees with a soft pad, spray on a given area and use a micro cloth to clean and dry it. Yes, I have to do work in order to clean my laminate floor.

Dang, I still get a haze even with the official/approved laminate cleaning spray and the microfiber mop... maybe someone here is using fabric softener when washing/drying the mop pads :O I will have to see

We had an aging cat who frequently urinated in the corner of our dinning room. We used "Dumb cat" after several failed attempts to end his marking behavior, and it completely removed the smell and he stopped going in the corner! www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?pcatid=13110 Should be safe on laminate.

***** I use an old Swiffer DUST mop with a microfiber cloth on it to clean my laminated floors and tile floors. It works really well but I always spray my floors rather than using a bucket (too much cleaning solution that way). Clean your cloth frequently with Dawn and NEVER wash them in the washing machine using fabric softener. I have always washed my cloths by hand using Dawn. They may not look as clean as you might like but they work great! Hope this helps.

We just moved into our new house about a month and a half ago and have these really good looking wood laminate floors super shiny, absolutely gorgeous for the first few days were there slowly they became doll and dirty when I brought my cat home kitty paws everywhere for her everywhere it’s just it’s been a nightmare to keep clean. I do literally sweep and run my vacuum every single day I’ve done nothing with the floor except use a steam cleaner and it looks as though is ever literally just damn water and steam cleaner. I haven’t been able to get my supermarket yet, so it’s like what am I doing wrong? I feel like I cannot keep before clean to save my life.

I live in a mobile home that still looks from the 70's. My boyfriend doesn't want to change anything. The floor is a nasty yellow color with a flower in each square of the linoleum floor and dirt gets trapped in the wedges of the flowers. I spend at least 6 times a year (every couple of months) on my hands and knees scrubbing every single square linoleum tile. Is there an easier way? I do one section one day and do another section another day but a week later it looks worse than before. It is very hard for me to get on my hands and knees doing this because I just had open heart surgery and my health isn't that great. Please let me know. I would really appreciate it.

Hey I live nearish Landcaster, about 2 hours away, near...ish. XD But what about unfinished hardwood floors? I know you have an older video up with them but you kinda skip over the part about how to clean them, just the finished ones. My parents bought the house about 20 years ago and just never put a coat on them and the floor has a 'walking path' on them that I'd like to remove. I do know no water though, it's not good for them.
