    Glad to see you back again 😊
    You all might already do this, but I turn on ceiling fans to medium speed to help dry the floor faster. Between that and an excellent spin mop system, it makes floor cleaning quick and easy, which is a huge deal in this house with 9 indoor dogs...36 feet trotting around...floor care is nonstop!

    Whoo! From Insta to YT, it's always great to learn from you! Our old floors have been somewhat neglected bc I just never really knew how to clean them properly (lots of those 'shine' products and probably too much saturated mops...oops) -- glad you're here to teach folks like me. All good stuff, sir. THANK YOU!

    One main tip for floors is to remove shoes at the door.

    Was just looking back at some of your IG posts for this - before starting the video: would this also apply to Parquet Flooring as well? I found your video on planks and it made sense afterwards re: Neutral Floor Cleaner - when I used just regular Mr. Clean on the floor, it was incredibly slippery with socks on afterwards.

      Even Bons leaves s residue. Just use a cool water (preferably deionized water) damp microfiber mop or pad. Always vacuum first or sweep.

  • @dragorn3212
    @dragorn3212 Před 2 měsíci

    Most of the dirt doesn't come off unless you actually wipe it afterward. The mop itself barely picks up 20% of the dirt. Whoever invents a mop that actually does its job of removing dirt instead of just wetting the surface will be a millionaire

    • @CleanThatUp
      @CleanThatUp  Před 2 měsíci +1

      Microfiber is one of the best fibers for picking up dirt. If you keep the mop head clean and rinsed it will pick up all most all of the dirt on the floor. To be sure the floor is clean I do a what towel test after. Example here - instagram.com/reel/Cx6anm-OLpn/?igsh=MTl0dmtoaXFuaGF2MQ==
