What to wash the floors with? Use this oil and they will shine like a palace

Washing laminate floors is not exactly the most pleasant task. However, we can make it much easier with the help of cheap but natural and simple tricks. We will not only save money, but also time, because we will no longer have to clean as often. A preparation that will work not only in the kitchen, but also as a cleaning and rinsing agent for floors in one, is linseed oil. It will allow us to get rid of all impurities and at the same time prevent the appearance of unsightly streaks.

  • Linseed oil has been used for years as a natural impregnation agent, so it can be successfully used on all wooden surfaces.

However, nothing prevents you from cleaning laminate boards or vinyl floors with it.

  1. To polish parquet floors and create a dust-repellent coating, simply add a few drops of oil to a bucket of water.
  2. Dip a soft cloth or mop in this mixture and thoroughly clean all floors.
  3. Finally, you can rub the parquet with a microfiber cloth to make it shine like in a real palace.

However, there is one catch. It is better not to use the linseed oil method on lacquered boards. However, there are other equally simple tricks.

Lacquered wooden floor in the kitchen gets dirty quickly. Here’s how to get rid of greasy stains

  • Instead, however, a gentle wipe with water mixed with vinegar, dish soap, a few drops of essential oil and a spoonful of alcohol, which will speed up the drying of the floor. Nothing fights greasy stains, especially in the kitchen, like vinegar.
  • Water and dishwashing liquid or baking soda are also good alternatives. Baking soda is great for removing stains, but remember to wash it thoroughly with a damp cloth after cleaning. Otherwise, it can leave unsightly smudges on the panels.
  • Every time you clean the panels, remember not to let them dry on their own. We should always dry them from excess moisture so that unsightly residues or smudges do not form on them.
