Can you clean laminate floors with baking soda or vinegar?

• <div><p>Yes. Baking soda and vinegar—when diluted with water—are safe to use to clean sticky laminate floors.</p></div>

What do professionals use to clean floors?

• <div><p>Professionals use various tools and cleaning solutions based on the type of floor they’re cleaning. They often use industrial steam cleaners to pull debris out of the carpet. For localized stains, they may use a commercial cleaner or a mixture of water, vinegar, and dish soap. For tile, they’ll typically use dish soap and hot water, plus a mixture of baking soda and hot water for the grout. For <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-clean-and-maintain-hardwood-floors.htm">cleaning wood floors</a>, they might use a low-heat steamer, a mop with an oil wood floor cleaner, or a mixture of hot water, vinegar, and lemon juice.</p></div>

Q: What cleaners should not be used for vinyl floors?

• <div><p>You can embrace minimalism when it comes to cleaning vinyl plank flooring. Water or diluted vinegar both work great for mopping and are much better options than some other cleaners that can damage the protective coating on these floors. Ammonia or solvent-based polishes can both break down the top layer. Also, avoid &ldquo;mop-and-shine&rdquo; cleaners, which tend to leave behind residue on vinyl plank floors.</p></div>

Q: Why are my laminate floors still dirty after mopping?

• <div><p>Using too much soap or floor cleaner can leave your laminate floors looking dirty or cloudy after mopping. Only use a teaspoon of soap or cleaning solution in a gallon of water. Additionally, always be sure to sweep or vacuum laminate floors before mopping to ensure you pick up dried grit, hair, and dust that can be harder to catch with a wet mop.</p></div>

Q: Does vinegar remove candle wax?

• <div><p>Distilled white vinegar can help you remove candle wax from surfaces like countertops. You&rsquo;ll need to scrape off most of the wax and use the distilled white vinegar to help soften and remove the rest and leftover residue. Keep in mind that while it&rsquo;s possible, using distilled white vinegar isn&rsquo;t an effective method for removing wax compared to the methods listed above.</p></div>

Q: Can you clean laminate floors with baking soda or vinegar?

• <div><p>Yes. Baking soda and vinegar&mdash;when diluted with water&mdash;are safe to use to clean sticky laminate floors.</p></div>
