How to Remove Paw Prints from Laminate Flooring

Laminate flooring is a high-quality, heavily durable flooring option that can be found in many homes. Paw prints are a common occurrence in pet households, typically created when a pet drags in dirt or mud from the outdoors. Cleaning the laminate floors is an easy option, and by applying a little extra pressure to the floors during the cleaning process, you can easily clean off dirty paw prints that have made their mark on your laminate flooring. A simple solution made from a handful of ingredients already in the home will work perfect in this instance.

Things You'll Need

• Bucket
• Mop
• Water
• Glass Cleaner
• Cleaning cloth

Instructions

1. Pour equal parts of hot water and glass cleaner into a cleaning bucket, then swish to combine ingredients.

2. Dip a mop or bucket in the solution, then twist out excess water. Use a damp mop, as too much water in contact with the laminate flooring can cause water stains and damage.

3. Mop over the floor, applying extra pressure to areas with paw prints.

4. Spray glass cleaner directly onto a soft cleaning cloth, and rub over the paw prints if the mopping did not remove the prints entirely.

5. Repeat as needed until all paw prints have been removed, then let the floor air dry.
