Re: How do you clean your laminate floors?

I just use the Swiffer wetjet with the cleaning formula that says it's OK for laminate floors, but they come out streaky looking if you look when the light hits it the right way.

I heard that if you dry the floor RIGHT AWAY (with a towel or something) before the floor dries on its own, it will eliminate the streakiness. But I haven't tried it yet.

I've been using the Shark Steamer and so far so good.

Seriously though I have the swifter wetjet and also have used the Murphys oil soap also. Mop and Glo is too sticky!

Phyl, we have the swiffer wetjet but I have read quite a few things saying if you don't dry the laminate right away, it warps it. Do you hand dry after you use the wetjet or has it air-dried fine?

I have never hand dried it after. I do sometimes put a clean,dry swifter pad on the swifter and go over it that way. It's quick and effective in drying the floor!Chat Icon

80% of the flooring in my house is Pergo and I don't have any bubbling anywhere.
