We have lots of wooden floors in our house and although they are not laminate, i tend to try use this stuff or similar because bleach is too harsh and I like a nice fresh rather than bleach smell.
WHAT IS IT?
This product has apparently been specially formulated to effectively clean most types of sealed wood flooring ( so not just for laminate) and it promises to remove grease and grime with no need for rinsing afterwards.
PRODUCT AND PACKAGING...
The floor cleaner comes in a plastic bottle containing 1litre of the product. It’s quite handy because there is a handle on the side which makes carrying it around easier, although a down side of the packaging is the fact that the screw on/off top isn’t child proof, and can easily be opened.
The product itself is a light brown colour which is quite appropriate really given that it’s going to clean my wooden floors. When I unscrew the cap for a sniff, I find that it’s got a bit of a floral smell but not unpleasant, almost woody really- that makes not a lot of sense but I’m not great at describing smells. Suffice that when I have cleaned the floors using the product they smell really clean and not overpowerfully floral.
HOW DO I USE IT?
The instructions on the back of the bottle tell me how to use it, and basically for large areas of floor, two capfuls should be diluted into 5 litres of water and then applied with a clean mop. Similarly, for smaller areas such as cupboards tables and chairs, the dilution should be halved and applied with a cloth. For both types of cleaning, it should be wiped down afterwards with a soft cloth. I am not overly good at measuring so just apply what I think is a good amount and change the solution frequently because there is no point cleaning a floor with dirty solution.
WHERE CAN I USE IT?
This is not to be used on unsealed wood polished or veneered surfaces but anything else that’s wooden seems to be ok.
WARNINGS…
The usual kind of warnings apply: not to be taken internally; avoid contact with eyes; wear protective gloves. It’s all a bit of common sense but I suppose they have to give us these warnings.
PRICE AND AVAILABILITY…
I bought this from my local bargain store for 99p which is great value for 1 litre of the stuff. The website, www.wizzproducts.co.uk gives lots of information about the products.
VERDICT…
A good value floor cleaning product which does as it says it is going to do. A little goes a long long way and if I use too much of the product there can be a soap residue which is why I believe the manufacturers suggest it is wiped down afterwards with a soft cloth so there are no soap or water marks. It makes the floors smell nice and fresh and clean and lifts any marks with minimum effort.
For a cheap and effective floor cleaner I would recommend this one.
Thanks for reading.
