How Do You Clean Hardwood Floors With Vinegar To Remove Sticky Residue?
With the proper treatment and care, hardwood floors will remain as good as new for a long time. However, most hardwood floors have a tendency to develop a sticky residue or build-up. Occasionally cleaning hardwood floors with vinegar is a simple and quick task that will help to eliminate this problem. The acidic levels in vinegar make it a good cleaner. Plain white vinegar that is commonly available in stores will do and there is no risk of changing the color of your wood. Remove any carpets or floor mats. Identify the spot where the sticky residue is. Sweep the area with a soft broom to clean any dirt lodged in the cracks. Mix 1 cup of white vinegar with a gallon of warm water thoroughly. Dip your cotton-based cleaning mop or a sponge into the liquid and squeeze out excess. Mop or wipe the sticky area gently with your mop or sponge. You will know the floor is clean when your mop or sponge glides freely over the area. Rub the area with a dry cloth to speed up the drying process. Repeat
