What cleaning products do you use?
I am thinking about changing some of the products I use. Break it down for me
Polishing furniture
Cleaning bathroom tub/toilet/sink
Washing floor (esp pergo type wood floor)
I used vinegar and water for the first time to clean the bathroom and now it stinks like vinegar

Re: What cleaning products do you use?
For polishing furniture- I use pledge- its alright, I dont love it
bathroom- scrubbing bubbles, I spray the tub leave it sit for about 3-5 minutes and then use a scrub brush and wipe it down then run the shower
toilet- I use the disposable scrubbing bubbles pads- you clean the bowl then flush them- love it!
kitchen- lysol bleach wipes
all floors- i have the shark steam mop- LOVE LOVE LOVE it- my floors are immaculate

I have the steam mop too and I am not sure how I feel about it. I notice that it leaves streaks. I would like to use a cleaner with it but it says that you shouldn't. Do you have any tips on using this mop?

hmm, I havent had that problem- I do change the water every time though- maybe try using filtered water and see if that helps?

I always use new water because the tank is so small and I have to refill it a few times within usage. I think I will try the filtered water idea. Thanks!

Re: What cleaning products do you use?
I use my own recipe for cleaning everything in the house. I use Castile soap, baking soda, borax, vinegar and hot water. So cheap and lasts a long time and it's earth friendly.
I use Clorox Green Works on the toilet and Scrubbing Bubbles for the tub. (I couldn't give it all up!)
I use Murphys for the wood furniture. Vinegar & water for the floors.

Re: What cleaning products do you use?
polishing : teak oil and lemon oil. Once a year a very light cleaning with Murphy's, followed by the oils.
bathroom : Softscrub for the tub, Mr Clean for everything else, including the toilet. Every two months or so, the grout gets wiped with peroxide. (doesn't corrode the grout like bleach can)
washing floors : just a damp mop on my hardwood and porcelain tile. No soaps.
Kitchen : warm water for the quartz counters, Mr. Clean for the appliances, baking soda for the sink. Porcelain floor gets warm water wipedown.
Windows : a mix of warm water, vinegar and a drop of dish soap.

Re: What cleaning products do you use?
The BEST product I have found to clean the tub and toilet is scrubbing bubbles and use the Magic Eraser. My tub is like butter!!!!

Re: What cleaning products do you use?
I now use the mr. clean magic erasers to clean everything (not the floors or wood obviously) but they work great and are the easiest to use (I'm lazy)
