Vinyl floors is also referred to as “resilient flooring.” Vinyl floors are quite cheap and they clean easy. Unfortunately they tend to get scratches easily too. Dirt and grime tend to chunk up in these scratches too. Here are some tips on cleaning vinyl flooring.

• If slightly soiled, just sweep or vacuum then damp mop the floor with a sponge and some warm water.
• When wet-mopping, clean small areas at a time.
• For a really good cleaning session, scrub the floor as follows:
  • Use a sponge mop
  • Dip the mop into a bucket of detergent
  • Spread the detergent over a small area
  • Wait for a minute for the detergent to work its magic
  • Scrub the area with the mop
  • Wipe up the excess liquid
  • Rinse the detergent off by mopping with some clean water and wipe dry
• If the floor still has some dull film, mop it up again with a cup of vinegar and a bucket of water.
