Hello MrsE. No tips unfortunately and I have the same problem, though mine also has a covering of black dog hairs unless cleaned daily!
I'm one of those silly people who gets swayed by the marketing of wondermops and trouble free floor cleansers. What I always forget, is that at the end of the day, they still need me to operate them!:rotfl:Less is more0 -
I use an E Cloth mop, currently with the standard pad but I see they now do a deep cleaning pad which I plan to buy soon. I always like the look of the steam mops but suspect they are not as good as they are made out to be ( I do have a K`Archer steam cleaner but have only used it a couple of times on the floor as it takes a long time to heat up.....really should make more effort with it like a lot of my stuff)0

My kitchen floor isn't massive and it's vinyl so I find down on hands and knees with a wet cloth the most effective!0

I have a tiled floor and give it a quick hoover before going down on my hands and knees - it's the only way I can get into all of the nooks and crannys.:happylove DD July 2011:happyloveAug 13 [STRIKE]£4235.19[/STRIKE]:eek: £2550.00 :cool:0

Hi MrsE,
I have black kitchen tiles, and seem to brush the floor ten times a day! I mop it with a vileda like this, but it's annoying as recently the mop fell to bits as it was rotten inside. So at the minute i have a toddler size mop! I use stardrops or bleach.
There is another thread about how people clean their floors, so I'll add this one to it later
thanks:)

I don't!! OH does.
When I did, like maman I used hands and knees and a hand cloth. I always felt that a long mop made a mess of the skirtings and never worked out how to clean them while the floor was wet. When it dried I had moved on to other things.0 -
I use a mixture of Stardrops and Zoflora, and use the JML Supermop Pro.0

I have cream tiles adn my kitchen/diner is 18ft long. Why I ever get cream tiles I do not know but anyway.
It sometimes needs mopped over twice a day and I use a jml twistamop. I use flash floor cleaner and a drop of bleach.
If it is just a quick wipe I just rinse it in sink and spray floor with kitchen cleaner and wipe it. Saves getting bucket out twice a day .
The head comes off this mop and goes into washing machine once a week. I love it , so much so everytime I see preplacement heads I buy spare ones lol I think I have 4 at minutes.TOTAL 44 weeks lose. 6st 9.5lb :T0 -
I'm another one who gets on my hands and knees.
My kitchen floor is tiny though so a mop is pointless.
