Five ways to keep a clean floor
MANILA, Philippines - Scotch-Brite Mops share five bright ideas for efficient floor cleaning. Keep these in mind when cleaning your floors to turn this chore into a breeze:
Not all floors are the same. Know the floor type that you will clean to know the cleaning method to use, as well as the cleaning tools you will need. Different floors require different cleaning methods and some can work for one type but can ruin another. Floor types can vary from the most common, like ceramic tiles, vinyl and linoleum, and to expensive floor types like hardwood and marble. Ceramic tiles, vinyl and linoleum would just need regular polishing while hardwood and marble need extra care to keep it from scratches and chemicals that can cause wear and tear.
Clear the floor. Make sure that you get the big junks and objects off your way before you sweep the surface and start mopping the floor to make sure you get all the dust particles.
Different mop types for different uses. Know what type of cleaning tool to use because some will work for wet areas and some for dry areas. For regular cleaning, you can use Scotch-Brite Everyday Cleaning Mop, made of cotton. It has looped ends to prevent fraying and linting. For wet surfaces, you can use Scotch-Brite Super Drying Mop made of micro-fiber strips, which quickly absorbs spilled liquid and effectively dries wet surfaces.
The perfect mop accessory. Know the right accessory for your mopping task like the Scotch-Brite Mop Wringer Bucket to help you work faster and easier. Its hands-free wringer makes mopping more convenient and definitely more hygienic. The bucket also has innovative features like a 20-liter volume capacity and anti-slip grip.
Know the right way to mop your floor. After you sweep the dust, mop from the innermost part of the room. Mop from corner to corner until you reach the room’s entrance so you don’t step on the cleaned area. Mop the area by doing a side to side motion to make sure you cover all spots. Scotch-Brite Mops has a small round mop head that can clean even the corners and hard to reach areas of the floor. It also has a lightweight handle to keep your arms from tiring easily while cleaning.
