I Need a Good Cleaner for My Foyer Wood Floor.

I've tried a lot of different products on my wood floors and the products I like best are from Bona (http://www.mybonahome.com/Home.aspx). My floors definitely look better with them. They even have a refresher product that will help with places on your floor that are starting wear out.

I like Method cleaners from Target. They have a very nice floor cleaner, it's lemon and ginger scented. Very nice and non-toxic.

I have a hoover floor mate, works great!!!

I don't personally have any wood floors, but I use a non-toxic product (I hate the idea of little hands and feet on chemical floors) called Rustic Touch. I get it from a wholesale internet store. I use it on my doors, trim, cabinets, etc. My friends use it on their floors and love it. My previous church also used it on their pews. I would be glad to share the information with you, if you like. www.fourpointwellness.com

I just got a Shark Steam Mop for Christmas and I love it. It really cleans the floors well, especially the ceramic tile bathroom floors. I don't have wood but I would imagine that it would be really good for the wood floors because it uses so little water and the water that is left behind dries in less than 2 min. No more sticky residue on the linoleum, no more dirty grout in the bathrooms and at the entry doors. It was a little expensive and I had my doubts but I have to say it does the trick. I was having a very hard time in the bathrooms because we have four boys and there was always an odor in the bathrooms that I was trying to cover up. The steam mop blasted the smell, got really deep down in the grout and never smells anymore.

Shaklee's Basic H2 will clean just about anything! For wood floors, they suggest 1 tablespoon of BH2 to 1 gallon of water. I'm actually a distributor and would be happy to send you a sample if you want. Just let me know!

I just use some vinegar in hot water on mine

R., I used to finish hardwood floors, and you should RARELY use any type of wet mopping on hardwood floors. I have a hard time believing that Murphy's took off the finish. Since this is a high traffic area, I am more inclined to believe that wear took the finish off, and cleaning with Murphys' brought it out. Since some finish is gone, you might want to sand it a bit and re-seal your floors. Do you live in the Akron area? Call WCCV (Wood, Ceramic, Carpet, Vinyl). They've been around FOREVER. They can retail products or you can have their techs do the work for you. Good luck!
