Question for anyone with laminate flooring

[jenniferannex]

What do you use to mop it? Like what sort of mop? I have one that's for laminate but it just goes streaky I use flash multi purpose for it, I also have underfloor heating so it drys quick and should dry evenly, but still streaks, But it just doesn't look nice, so I need a new mop!! What sort do you use?

 

[jenny_wren]

sponge mop would probably leave less marks



i just use a normal mop and dettol mixed
fairy liquid, i like the smell ​

I just use a normal one, doesn't streak

Hasn't flash got bleach in? I used to use bleach mopping my floors and it went streaky.
Disinfectant is better. Doesn't streak.

I use Flash, its shit and far too thick.

So i use a drop of Washing up liquid and Vinegar and a normal mop.

No streaks, no fuss

I dont use a mop in my laminate, I dont think its meant to get really wet? I just wipes for ours but I must admit they stay fairly clean as no pets or food allowed in lounge lol x

We use a vileda sponge mop and use a bit of Zoflora disinfectant in some hot water. Floors always look great xx

In tesco they do floor wipes.
I just get on my hands and knees and use them.

They are only a £1 a pack and they are anti-bacterial and smell lush!

I use the flash floor cleaner i think it is. its in a clear bottle with orangey liquid in it I use a regular mop, i find the sponge ones SHIT.

I use an ordinary mop, and either bleach or the flash floor cleaner stuff. Always works fine xx

ahhh thanks girls
i would use the wipes but we have laminate floor everywhere apart from the kitchen and living room, and the dining area and hallway is a really large space, so it would take me ages.
going to try a few different things first that you have suggested to clean it and then if non work ill change my mop

we used to have a mop thing that you put wipes on instead of getting on your hands and knees for the ladies that are on their knees shock x

I just used hot water and washing up liquid. Sometimes put a cap of fabric conditioner in the water for the nice smell

I don't have laminate, I have hard wood but I used to have laminate.
I always used bleach and then went over it with hot water
