Believe it or not, the way your floors are mopped is very important, why? It protects the appearance and vastly improves the indoor air quality, how? Mopping your floors the correct way, with the right mopping solution helps to remove wanted substances and reduce surface contamination. The news is replete about the COVID-19 pandemic.

TRADITIONAL MOP & BUCKET

There are various types of mops and buckets on the market. The range in design and price is stunning. Whether you mop your own floors or have hired a housekeeping service, be sure to purchase durable equipment. Never allow any housekeeping service to use their mops on your floors, why? Housekeeping services mopheads will harbor transferable germs and bacteria from previous customer’s flooring. Couple with the fact that unsupervised equipment and mopping solutions can speed calling Stone Care of Arizona to address soiling and etching issues. Housekeeping services notoriously use a strong all-purpose cleaner. The popular ones smell good, put will rapidly turn your floors dark and leave a soil attracting residue on your stone/tile and grout. 
 
Keep this principle in mind, “Control The Process, You Control The Outcome.” 
Mop Bucket
MOP AND BUCKET METHOD:
If you prefer using a mop and bucket to mop floors, select an area on the floor and do the following: 
    1. Add hot water into the bucket and fillup to the wringer line (avoid over filling)
    2. Measure 2 to 4ozs of Zep Neutral Floor Cleaner and pour into the mop bucket.  
    3. Lightly wring out half of the mopping solution (damp not drippy mop)
    4. Wet mop a small workable area on the Limestone, Slate, Flagstone, Travertine, Onyx, stained or polished Concrete, Terrazzo, Marble and Tile. (this allows chemical reaction to the soil) 
    5. Take the scrub brush with a handle and agitate the mopping solution onto the surface of floor until it’s dry. 
    6. Wring out mop and soak up the emulsified soil and mopping solution on the floor. 
    7. Repeat until the floor is clean and lightly damp
    8. Take microfiber mop and make a pass over the floor to assist drying and leveling out the wet floors. 
    9. Make consistent passes to ensure you have not missed an area. 
    10. If you want the floor to dry quickly. We recommend a floor fan.
