Step-by-step guide

Step 1
Start by dusting the floor with a Dusting Pad if needed to remove loose dirt and grit.

Step 2
Fill the Spray Mop with Universal Cleaner solution.

Step 3
Use one trigger pull of solution for every 1–2 square metres of flooring.

Step 4
Choose your pad based on surface: Deep Clean Pads for a deeper clean, Everyday Pads for textured finishes that need a smoother glide.

Step 5
Work backward as you clean to avoid stepping on freshly cleaned areas.

Step 6
Ensure each section looks almost dry as you finish — less solution is better for hardwood.

 

Pro tip

Regular light cleans are better for hardwood than occasional heavy mopping — they keep the wood nourished, streak-free, and protected from moisture damage.

 

Safety first: Spot test to ensure compatibility with varnishes. Never store the Spray Mop with a used or wet pad facing the floor, as it may leave blemishes.

 

Other notes

Use mats at entryways to reduce dirt and grit scratching your floors.

Always wring cloths or pads thoroughly before using on hardwood.
