How to choose the right floor cleaner

Choosing the right floor cleaner starts with knowing your surface. Using the wrong product can dull finishes or damage sealants.

Match the cleaner to the floor

Neutral pH cleaners are safe for most sealed floors. For heavy grease, a degreaser works best, while acidic cleaners suit mineral deposits but should be kept off natural stone.

Dilution matters

Always follow the dilution rate on the label — more concentrate doesn’t mean cleaner floors, and can leave a slippery residue.
