Mopping with anything that has hit the floor, back into mop bucket, then the floor is only spreading dirt.<\/p>\n<p>Rinse with clean water. Some people will actually spritz onto the floor and then mop with clean water or steam with a steamer<\/p>\n<p>Use a neutral cleaner. It is recommended to use a cleaner that has a pH of around 7. Some things very available to all? Simple Green, Fabuloso, or a Neutral Stone and Tile Cleaner you can get at the hardware store.<\/p>\n<p>Some things people mop with that can leave a residue include Pine-Sol (pH of around a 3), Mr. Clean Lemon (pH of around a 10), Vinegar and Water (pH of around a 3), etc.<\/p>\n<p>Why does it matter? Because a detergent residue will actually attract dirt having the opposite effect most homeowners desire as far as cleanliness.<\/p>\n<p>Here are a couple of links regarding pH levels of common cleaners: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amycleaning.co.uk\/blog\/2013\/05\/ph-level-of-house-cleaning-products\/\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.amycleaning.co.uk\/blog\/2013\/05\/ph-level-of-house-cleaning-products\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rjschinner.com\/blog\/literature\/clorox\/SPECCLO-PINE.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.rjschinner.com\/blog\/literature\/clorox\/SPECCLO-PINE.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2026and one from an actual grout manufacturer:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mapei.com\/public\/CA\/linedocument\/TB_Grout_Cleaning_EN.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/www.mapei.com\/public\/CA\/linedocument\/TB_Grout_Cleaning_EN.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Allaman Tile and Carpet Cleaning are based in Litchfield Park, AZ in the\u00a0 Phoenix West Valley.
