Sick of dragging out a huge mop + bucket of crappy water around, I needed a new solution to a dirty linoleum kitchen floor - without needing to buy a Swiffer.
Here's how I did it:
- Sweep the floor as usual, picking up loose dirt and things, put in a dustpan and throw in the trash. Well, don't throw it - it usually ends up back on the floor that way.
- Get some of your favorite cleaning wipes. They come in a plastic canister, are moist, and you pull them up as if they were tissues. Soggy Kleenex if you will. Either way, I had some of the Clorox brand wipes from Target.
- Pull two of them out.
- Place on floor. Don't drop them, you're not good enough to have them land perfectly flat.
- Step on them with shoes on. I recommend Saucony running shoes.
- Do a little dance. The trick here is to scrub back and forth with your feet staying on the floor. Try to incorporate "The Robot."
