Question:

How do I clean and maintain vinyl flooring?

I have a doctors office with vinyl tile floors in the exam rooms and I want the floors to look really clean and shiny. What kind of cleanser is best? Do I need a special machine to buff the floors? If so what kind is good and where can I get one? What kind of regimen is best for cleaning and buffing?

Answer:

water and vinegar
Sweep or vacuum floors first then use a heavy duty cleaner such as a polish remover. Your manufacturer should be able to recommend a good product here. Avoid a do it all product that will leave a residue and attract dirt and make your floor look dull. Your floor will get some use and wear down so renew it with an acrylic floor polish. Follow label directions. Spot clean spills and marks as soon as they show.
as funny as it sounds, Windex has been the best thing that has worked for me.
