O.T.: Swiffer dusters
Comments (1)Hey, I use those...Didn't know they'd "wash"...Gonna try that.. Glad your finally getting a warm up :) knotz...See MoreQuestion About Swiffer Products
Comments (12)I don't know what type mop you have. The swiffer bottle is shaped to fit in the mop and has to be in the slot to let the cleaner come out. If your mop has a bottle that you could fill with the swiffer cleaner it might work. I have taken the the top off the swiffer bottle to refill but haven't had any luck with it not leaking. My Shark just takes plain water. I buy the distilled water at the grocery for 79 cents to use in mine. Also the pads that come with the Shark ( you get five of them and they are really nice) fit on the swiffer mop. Not having to buy the refill pads for the swiffer soon pays for the Shark Steam Mop. We have 8 small grandkids and they spill alot so I need a mop......See MoreDo you swiffer? And info for Oceanna . . .
Comments (39)I use the big wide swiffer type mop that has 2 heads, one for dusting, one for mopping. I think the Bruce people make this mop, not sure, can't remember. Both mop heads are washable. To mop laminate I use Taaka Vodka w/water, a little squirt of dish soap, then spritz with a spray bottle and mop as I go. No, I don't drink the vodka and water, it goes on the floor. For the tile I use the same cleaning solution, but use a string mop for more heavy duty mopping. For those of you using vinegar on your tile floors, remember vinegar will strip any sealant that is on your grout because of the acid. Also, swiffer liquid will discolor and dull certain types of tile finishes. I use the same Vodka/water and soap for the granite, ss appliances, glass, etc. along with a microfibre cloth. It works on almost everything. I do not use it on painted or stained wood surfaces as the alcohol could strip or dull the finish. I was using rubbing alcohol instead of pure alcohol and then learned the fumes from rubbing alcohol are dangerous to inhale. I prefer not to use any chemical cleaners in my house. Will use bleach rarely if needed, but that's about it for chemical cleaners. I use Greased Lightning for cleaning litter boxes outside. Spray, let set, hose and they are spotless without having to touch the inside of the box....See MoreThe product (in the Swiffer thread) I couldn't recall the name of
Comments (5)The WetJet is refillable (I refill mine all the time) and you can buy microfiber heads for them. ebay sells cotton reusable heads for the WetJet too. There's sites with instructions on how to make them too. Some just take a towel and use clothespins to hold it on. I like the throwaway pads. I buy generic ones and they last for a lot of moppings. I have a small bathroom and small kitchen so I don't use a lot of them. My cousin has the Clorox mop that I've used and don't like it nearly as well as the WetJet. I'd like to get one of the vacuum ones....See Morequiltglo
