Re: what should i use to clean my hardwood floors

white vinegar and water (50% of each) should not leave a residue. that's all i use to clean my floors because traditional floor cleaners don't leave them shining the way the vinegar does

2 things have worked really well for me: Swiffer Wetjet for Hardwood floors, and Bruce's hardwood floor cleaner! They are both great!

We tried this, but I feel like it left a residue, like you could see your foot marks after. Do you notice this?

Never....I use a small amount though and make sure to soak and wring the pad before starting.

I love Bruce's hardwood floor cleaner. We tried Swiffer wet previously and it left a residue.

IF I can open all of the windows I use the vinegar/water combo - otherwise I use Murphy's Oil Soap
