Dry excess wood cleaner or water from the floor with a cloth or mop as you go. Repeat wash cycle as needed for heavy dirt. Rinse mop head very well after each time you mop the floor. Change cleaning solution and rinse water when dirty or if there is not enough liquid in bucket to fully immerse mop head. This is especially important when cleaning dark wood species. As with any floor treatment, test on an inconspicuous floor area to ensure compatibility and that desired results can be achieved. Let the floor surface dry completely before applying oil, maintenance gel or wood soap.
