I have always bought the expensive special hardwood floor cleaner from the flooring store. They are often out of it which means I have not had cleaner when I have run out. Never fear, Andrea Jean is here! I love, love, love this and hearing that others have used it on their floors makes me happy because I am going to have clean hardwood floors!

I cleaned homes for 33 years,and Murphy's Oil Soap is what I liked to use,and it smells great! I had a few clients that were afraid to let me use it because they thought it would streak, but if you use a small amount in warm water,it doesn't streak. A great product! I love your channel!

@@anthonyfalcone5605 I agree. I’ve heard to not use ammonia on your floors as it’s too harsh and will wear done hardwood floors way faster. I’ve used dawn dish soap in the smallest amount and it’s worked to decrease.

Exactly what we use. Works great

I used Murphy oil soap for years. I need to get a new mop soon. Thanks for sharing & God Bless All !!

Our bedroom floor has white dust all over it from tearing down & putting up a new ceiling. Will this work for getting rid of all that dust.

Cool. Thanks for this information. I have several wood floors in my house also and I have a cleaning lady that comes once a month and uses Murphy's Oil on the floors and also uses a Libman fiber cloth mop . The floors look amazing and I have a bottle of Murphy's oil for myself with the Libman mop/fiber cloths for doing jobs around the house myself. Yes, Murphy's oil does smell great. take care.

¼ cup of Murphy oil to a gallon of water is a perfect consistency. Here's a little hack, I use those little cups that comes with the Tide laundry detergent as my guide, it's perfect. It comes with numbered lines on the cup, 1-5. Well I measured it and 4 is equivalent to a ¼ cup. So pour Murphy's to the 4 line to a gallon. Here's the hack or guide, pour Murphys to the 1 line and pour it into an old windex 32fl. Bottle and you'll have a mini spray bottle for small jobs. I use a dry sweeper swifter pad and bammm. On a previously cleaned for, meaning, I moped and cleaned with a gallon. I'll use a clean mop, I'll wet it and wringe it out, for a "dry mop" (lightly wet) and I'll use my spray bottle on "Stream"...... it works like a dream. House smells like light citronella and floors, laminate, hardwood, and kitchen tiles, shine without the stickiness. Remember, measurements are important for the BEST RESULTS. happy cleaning

I will definitely try Murphy's Oil Soap! Thanks!

Murphy’s Oil Soap

I was told long ago never to use That oil soap on hardwood floors. But you use it. Now your floors are they true Hardwood and are they sealed. They don’t look sealed with a oil base polyurethane. To clean hardwood floors one must only use water and a capful of Vinegar, that’s it.

These hardwood floors in the house are 30+ years old. They have been stripped and professionally waxed recently but I wanted to bring the shine. Following the directions, the floor is clean, still no shine.

@johnhouli3450

10 ай бұрын

Waxing floors won’t brink a shine They need a professional cleaning with scrubbing machines and a dissolver then they get it all picked up and then mop with water very little water dry and the next thing is applying polyurethane I prefer oil base but they have water base now that cost a lot more that seems to do a great job and it dries in a few hours. Oil base dries in 24 hours and it needs two coats.

Here to learn. . . . .

@@AndreaJean yea, I don’t know why exactly either which is annoying considering it’s on the bottle. Btw, what I do use, is Weiman Hardwood Cleaner and because my floors are pretty old, after cleaning I usually finish with Weiman’s Hardwood Polisher and Restorer (like a mop n glo type product). One of the BEST products I found if you have older floors that could use a little tlc and one application lasts through several normal cleanings. (It was about $15 on Amazon and about $9 at my local grocery store.)

Hardwood Association say white vinegar & water for sealed floors when I looked it up a few years ago.
