Is this cleaner safe to use on prefinished hardwood?

I have used it on my laminate floors without any problems. Streak free. Windows you need to use a cloth to dry. Stainless steel appliances a total mess... I rather use special creams for that because if i got a lot of streaks. Over ceramic cooktops great.

Yes, I have prefinished hardwood floors in the entry way of my home and I use the steamer on them with no problem. I was weary at first because of the finish and glue but it hasn't affected either.

I have used it 3 or 4 times on my hardwoods and haven't had any problems. just do as it recommends and do not let it sit for more than 3 seconds in any one spot.

I don't think the wipes make as big a difference as the cleaner used. Swiffer also makes a cleaner designed for hardwood floors.

Yes, but as with any cleaner, it'd be best to test it somewhere inconspicuous first. Not all wood finishes have the same durability. Particularly as this has to dwell for 10 minutes to disinfect, less durable finishes might not hold up.

Laura I would be afraid to use them on your finish. I have wood floors that are not prefinished. They are more for cleaning than removing scratches. I don't really know but they might damage the finish.

Also as another comment especially on hard surfaces like on stone, metal and other surfaces they also make a micr polisher called pre lim which is a chalky non scratch abrasive cleaner if you need to remove or flatten old finishes. I have used it on badly checkered wood with good rests but real care is required to use it on wood.

It is an enzyme that takes away odors. I cannot answer the question what it would do to the finish. I use it outside and on soil that is urine concentrated and it works. Because you need to leave it on before wiping it away, you could case hardwood to swell because conceivably wood absorbs water.

There's a special solution just for wood floors. The bottle is brownish in color. I think it's a new product. I tried it, and it's better than using the regular cleaner on it.

I have hardwood throughout my home and it does a beautiful job. I believe when I was researching products there is a Bono tile cleaner which I imagine would do an equally excellent job.

their instructions say that it can be used only on *sealed* hardwood floors. I use it lightly, without problems on all my hardwood floors even though they're not super well sealed; that is they're old and i have never redone them. I love my steamer.

I have oy used it in wool wall to wall and wool area rugs and it works beautifully, I don't use the pre-spray. Don't know about dry clean only.

I have used it on my wood floors without any issue. My wood floors have a couple coats of polyurethane to protect the wood.

While I've never used it on my hardwood floor, I have used it on my cabinets very successfully. On the bottle, it says you can use it on wood. I've used it on practically everything listed on the back of the bottle - but mostly on laundry. I order it in packages of 6 bottles at a time. This is really a great product, and I don't believe you would be disappointed!

That's an excellent question that I don't know the answer to. It's and emulsifier that strips oil and dirt from surfaces. So if your hardwood floors are real wood with a waxed surface I would advise against it. But if its Pergo flooring or an imitation wood I would go for it at 15 to 1. If you have stained areas you can always treat those with a higher concentration spray and wipe clean.

I have not and do not use a swiffer so I am unable to provide an answer to your question. I can tell you that I vacuum my hardwood floor prior to cleaning and then use Bona hardwood floor cleaner with the BonaKemi microfiber cleaning pad. I feel it cleans the floor and doesn't appear to leave any particles (at least not that I can see). You do need to make sure you rinse the cleaning pad while cleaning and throw it in the washing machine to keep it clean (this will also avoid having streaks next time you use it). Hope this helps.

I've only used it to spot wash on hardwood floors in my home and did not let it soak into the wood. I then did a very light rinse. It did fine. Of course, the type of wood and the finish makes a difference, I am sure. If it is a kennel floor and you just want the odor gone then I'd do a more soaking wash. I've used it in my washer with dog bedding and even on the clothes I wear while caring for my dogs too. I swear by the stuff.

I would not use this product on wood floors. Real soap is alkaline and would likely damage the finish. Do a search for natural floor cleaner. They are all based on vinegar (acidic) or alcohol (neutral).
