Goggling for cleaning ideas, some said to use water with vinegar. Did not help. Another said to use Scubbing Bubbles to loosen the dirt. Only after I read the ingredients will I consider this. I doubt that I will use my Swiffer in the future once I clean up this floor. I think it just "fills" the small crevices as I push it around the floor.

Anyone have success with deep cleaning a vinyl floor!?

Thanks!

I have used a product called Simple Green for years. It seems to work on about everything, dirt or greasy. I use it in my kitchen on the stove and refrigerator top that seem to get greasy. I even used it in my bath tub on the 80+ year old tub and on the tiles. I had to let it set for awhile but it got them all so clean. I was amazed about the tub and tile. I get it at the grocery or at Home Depot type stores. It is cheaper by the gallon, but not any more expensive in smaller quantities than any other product.
