Swiffer Questions Answered
We had some questions about the Swiffer tip below. Amy was nice enough to answer them.
I hope this helps! Tawra
Dear Tawra,
On the top of the cleaner blade are 4 push-in spots where the overlap of the rag pushes right into the blade. The cloths are wide enough to wrap around and fit into those spots.
The cleaner solution can be anything you want.
Some people are allergic to every chemical cleaner and can't use commercial types. Whatever suits you and is thin enough to pass thru the hose (I have the attached bottle type mop) will work. I started with a mop that didn't have the attached bottle and just sprayed the floor in-front of me as I went.
Some suggestions are:
plain tap- hot water - not boiling!
vinegar + water
water w/ aroma or essence scent (non-oily)
your favorite cleaner watered down (follow manufacture's directions or less)

Hmmm, what hose? I have a Swiffer mop and there's an attached bottle, but no hose that I know of. I've been wanting to refill the bottles with my own solution, but the only hack I've come up with is drilling a hole in the top of the bottle and then plugging it after I've put in my solution.
So how does the solution get to the mop with the set up you describe? I have a Clorox Ready Mop and it works just as described on the site. But, if you are using your own cleaning solution and washing and reusing towels, how is this any better/easier than using a standard sponge mop and bucket of cleaner? Just my take on things.
