Do you clean green?

Question

I'm looking to start using natural products to clean, baking soda, vinegar, lemon juice, etc. Questions are on wood floors and granite, anyone know if it would be ok to use Vinegar as long as it was dilluted enough? anyone know what enough is?? thanks!

Answer 1

Vinegar is fine on wood floors.  Bona makes a floor cleaning product that is pretty good for occasional use.  

I use baking soda and lemon juice on my ceramic tile floors for deep cleaning and vinegar for every day cleaning.  

I would recommend about a cup of vinegar to a 3/4 full bucket - warm water.  

For granite, it has natural antibacterial properties, I'd try using a highly diluted vinegar solution about once a week, and very hot water with a clean microfiber cleaning cloth the balance of the week.

Method also has some good products - website or available at Target.

Answer 2

Heck, since I always mix the clothes in the laundry, I get green, blue, pink and lots a lint (for the extra insulating power), then I take them out, beat them on a rock and hand in the wind!

Answer 3

No, all acidic substances are BAD for wood floor, I highly recommend a steamer it cleans and disinfects (you can buy a floor cleaning attachment too!) Don't dismiss it the steamer has tons of uses (a lot of people just dismiss them too easily)

Not sure about granite, sorry, steamer would work thou.
