Vinyl Floor

One of the best ways to keep the floor looking good is
to hose or wipe fabrics off on a weekly basis with clean
water� This helps prevent dirt from becoming deeply
embedded in the fabric and eliminates the need for
more vigorous cleaning� For general or light cleaning,
brush off loose dirt. Hose or wipe down the floor.
Prepare a solution of water and mild soap such as
dish washing liquid or household cleaner� Using a soft
bristle brush to clean, apply a small amount of water
and soap mixture to the stain� Rinse thoroughly until all
soap residue is removed. Allow the floor to air dry. For
more stubborn stains and mildew, prepare a solution of
1 cup bleach and 1/4 cup mild soap per gallon of water�
Apply a small amount of bleach and soap mixture to
the stain and blot with a sponge or clean towel� Rinse
thoroughly to remove all soap residue� Allow to air dry�
A citrus based cleaner like D-Limonene can be used
for tough dirt and grease spots� Ammonium based
products are NOT recommended� All cleaning products
need to be rinsed off thoroughly and air dried after
cleaning�
