How about vinegar and water...I know it cuts greasy film on windows

PB from MN

I live in an old farm house and when I recently had some of the floors redone, I was told to never use Murphy's Oil Soap on them. If I had to wipe them, I was to use a barely damp mop with only water. If I felt I needed something to use a solution of water and vinegar and not very much of the vinegar.

The very best thiing to do is to keep them dry mopped or vacuumed as the grit from dirt is what causes the finish to dull.

I love my real wood floors.

Had hard wood floors put in living and dining room last year.....just vinegar and water...with just a DAMP string mop weekly.....that's what I did in our "old" house too.....

With the Murphy's you have to follow up with a dry cotton mop to wipe off the residue. I only use Murphy's on wood furniture that I'm planning on just cleaning. I usually follow with pledge or English oil. Some polys don't work well with the Murphys.

Did you use shiny or a flat poly? Makes a huge difference.

Murphy's Oil is not good on wood floors. It does leave a film and over time can hurt some of the finishes. Have you tried just plain water with a drop or two of dawn dish soap - use a sponge mop that you can wring out well. Any kind of product with ammonia in it will hurt the finish over time.

My neighbor, the wood floor installer, helped us sand our real wood white oak floors when we installed them 5 years ago. After putting on several coats of poly stuff I asked him what to use to clean. He said to use vinegar and water, NOTHING ELSE.... I use one of those micro duster floor mop. The vinegar/water mix really cleans.. my floors look brand new..... use probably 1/2 and 1/2 or less vinegar if you want.... I also use the same mix for washing windows and mirrors. Use a squeegee - no streaks.....
