BEST FLOOR MOP FOR CLEANING
When it comes to floor cleaning you have got to have the right Mop for the right type of floor. Today we are going to be discussing three types of Mops and what purpose they serve and the application to which they serve. Each is designed for the specific task and we are going to look at three types of Mops.
Dust Mop
The Dust Mop was designed to be a light-duty or low traffic area cleaning mop for everyday use. Its main objective is to trap small everyday debris such as dust, lint, or pet hair for example. Also known as Dry Mopping or Dust Mopping this Mop makes light work of an everyday job. Now I will be sharing how to use a Dry Mop in a future update, surprisingly the way you use this Mop differs from a normal whisk broom or push broom. The Dust Mops is for smooth floor surfaces such as finished concrete, sanded & finished hardwood, laminate, or linoleum floors.
Microfiber Mop
There are many variations of Microfiber Mops you have Microfiber Dust Mop, Microfiber Wet Mop, Microfiber Wet Mop Pads. Like the Dust Mop, this Mop is for smooth surfaces and is the dominant style Mop found in medical facilities as it is great for not only its cleaning ability but that it also helps capture bacteria. Another great feature about the Microfiber Wet Mop is that it is also available in a Microfiber Wet Mop Scrubber Pad. Medical & Hospitality facilities enjoy this feature of the product because it allows for a “one and done” meaning each specific application such as a hospital room or lobby restroom uses only one Microfiber Wet Mop Pad and then disposed into the soils for laundering. There is a very specific method on How do you use a Microfiber Mop, and I will be writing a post on that for you as well. Keep in mind that Microfiber Wet Mops are available in the traditional “string style” as well and that type of Mop Head can be used on floor types like ceramic, finished concrete, etc.
Wet Mop
The old tried and true standard to mopping floors! A Mop Handle, Mop Head, & Mop Bucket combined makes a lean, mean, cleaning machine. That and some muscle! One consideration most never gives when investing in a Wet Mop purchase, lease, or rental is the size of Wet Mop and the person using it. There are four common variations in sizes small (8-10 oz. liquid), Medium (16-20 oz. liquid), Large (24-30 oz. liquid), or Extra Large (32-40 oz. liquid). Did you know that for every 8 oz. of liquid is equivalent to ½ a pound? That means for an Extra-Large Wet Mop you could be sloshing around up to 5 lbs. in weight. That is equal to nearly two bricks at the end of that handle! So, consider who is going to be using the Wet Mop and choose accordingly. This Wet Mop is super versatile and can be used on virtually any type of floor.
