Vinegar and water to mop. Swiffer for daily cleanup

Steam mop with vinegar and water.

We use a swiffer. After some time I noticed the grout getting dirty. Cleaned it up and then sealed it with some tile and grout sealer. It was a home type project that took time and patience. Cleaning took the longest.

Swlffer, with a clear water steam mop as needed. Pleasantly surprised at the ease of keeping them up.

Which Swiffer model do you use? The one that squirts or the dry one? You can tell that I am not familiar with the product.

Thought about sealing mine, I thought the grout was special and was afraid to try, what product did you use?

Steam mop but I've tried various things including Mr. Clean. Streaks so easy. I think you need an absorbent mop if you are not using a steam mop.

BONA for tile. available at Home Depot
best we've found.

I'm not sure the chemical you use on the tile for cleaning it is as relevant as something absorbent enough to avoid streaks. That's the biggest issue I experience is leaving the wet stuff behind that leaves streaks. Using a towel would seem ideal if not a pain, trying to find a much more absorbent mop.

Neal I use one of those microfiber mops that's made for wood floors. The cover is washable. I use one side to to wipe up my spray mixture of vinegar and water then flip it to dry
