Pour the vinegar into a glass or bucket and add the warm water.
Dip your mop or microfiber cloth into the solution, wring it out to avoid soaking the floor.
Mop your floor as usual, ensuring you cover all areas evenly.
Allow the floor to air-dry or wipe it down with a dry cloth for a streak-free finish.
2. Vinegar for Stubborn Stains
If your floors have tough stains or stuck-on dirt, white vinegar can help lift them effortlessly:
Ingredients:
1/2 cup of white vinegar
1/2 cup of baking soda
Warm water
Instructions:
Mix the vinegar and baking soda in a bowl. It will bubble—this reaction helps break down stubborn grime.
Apply the paste to the stained area and scrub gently with a soft brush or sponge.
Rinse the area with warm water and mop as usual.
