    I vacuum my floors first. Normally I use Mop and Glo to clean them. I've got a bottle of Murphys Oil Soap. Once the Mop and Glo is out. I'll give Murphys Oil Soap a try. This is a very helpful video and thanks for sharing. 🪣

    Great video! I just moved into a vintage home with old beautiful wooden floors and I have no idea how to care for them. After mopping with the Murphy's soap, what should I put on the wood next to protect and shine it? Thanks! Love from Memphis, TN~

    You could apply a wood protectant on the flooring if it's not already waxed, but probably should either wax the floor yourself, or hire someone to do it properly to give it a long lasting shine.

    Hello Fi Fan. What method did you use to wax and polish the flooring after you washed it using Murphy's Oil Soap? I normally use a floor wax paste and buff it by hand. One issue I encountered is with elderly people who find the waxed floor far too slippery to be safe for them. As children, we would race down the hallways in our socks after we finished waxing the hallways. That was fun but with old folks not so fun.

    Do not use Murphy's oil soap on your floors! I am a floor refinisher of 30 years. Do not use Murphy's oil soap. It leaves a residue that you cannot apply finish to. At the flooring supply store where they sell finish there are signs on the wall. Caution do not recoat over Murphy's oil soap maintained floors. Perform test for adhesion. What this person has just done to their floor means you would have to sand and refinish in the future versus doing simple buff and recoat method which is the recommended maintenance for wood floor. Secondly you never wet your wood floors. The water goes between the boards, swells the wood, causes raised edges etc. This video is the absolute enemy to floors. Great job my friend...

    How to…… don’t use it. Period. It leaves a wax residue behind, which will prevent you from being able to recoat with a finish. The residue builds and oxidizes causing you to have to keep applying. This is why we have urethane coatings(so you don’t have to wax like 75 years ago) I own a sand on site hardwood flooring company.

    Can you use it on oiled floors? I have both types of finish. On my urethane-coated floors I use water or sometimes a very, very diluted cleaner (like 1-2 ml per 500mL), with tensides that breakdown within two hours. I spray the floor a bit to get it damp and then wipe off the damp with a clean cloth. But I'm not sure how to correctly care for my oiled floors... I've just been using water. But they are looking a bit dry...
