Laminate floor question

[LostinVA]

WE put in some nice DuPont laminate, and have been dust mopping it. However, it needs to be cleaned. I know wet mopping is a no-no, but can you Wet Swiffer it?

1. wet mopping is a NONO?

when did that happen? What of spills, drinks, babies, animal accidents, or drunks?

3. I've been wiping with a damp towel

Yeah, everyone I know who has laminate -- plus the manufacturer of my flooring -- says that can/will ruin it.

2. sure, it shouldn't soak in

(which is the problem with mopping) I'm pretty sure that's how my folks clean theirs.

4. Great -- my sister said that, but she's half crazy, so

I wanted another opinion. Thanks!

5. A bucket of warm water with a cup of white vinegar

works for me!

6. I've had laminate flooring for 5 years.

Wet swiffers have never harmed it at all.

10. Great! I'm going to go use it now.

7. I wet mop mine..

I use a combo of vinegar and water then I mop. After I'm done mopping, I go over it with a microfiber cloth to wipe up all the residual.
