Should You Use Cotton or Microfiber to Clean With?
by Amy Sardone
on Aug 07 2024
I recently received the question: "Should I use a cotton cloth or a microfiber cloth?"
Now if you didn't get a chance to read up on why we care about having a good, plush microfiber cloth versus those cheap, thin microfiber rags, then go check out the blog post called "Does the Quality of a Microfiber Cloth Matter?"
And if you've ever wondered how to choose between using a cotton cloth or a microfiber one, I have several things here for you to think about before you make your decision, so read on...
But ultimately, it will come down to preference.
I know...there really is no right or wrong answer, just another gray area in life.
I'm going to break this into 2 categories of cleaning: Floors and Everything Else.
First up - FLOORS. Again, this is still up to your preference but here is what you should know:
Microfiber Mop Covers:
Microfiber mop covers, like our yellow Sh-Wipes, can work better on hardwood floors because they glide over the floor with little friction while still using those little micro fingers to grab dirt.
Microfiber also needs less cleaner and less water, so you can do more of a damp mopping of hardwood. You never want to saturate hardwood floors, so microfiber damp mopping is a great option.
Cotton Terrycloth Mop Covers:
Cotton Terrycloth mop covers are great for a couple of different reasons. We like to use them in areas with high traffic or heavily soiled rooms like bathrooms and kitchens because they can handle more wetness, heavier duty cleaning, and more scrubbing power.
Since they are cotton, you can also wash them on hot, and bleach them if needed.
Next - EVERYTHING ELSE.
Cotton Cloths:
We like to use 100% linen cotton. They are high quality, and lint-free. Don't waste your time going back over your clean mirror just to try to remove all of that leftover lint. Now, notice that I didn't recommend using an old cotton t-shirt (or worse...) or an old newspaper. Those items will make more work for you and waste your time. Notice also, that I did not call them "rags" because we don't want to work with tools that are in tatters..again, time wasters.
They are (almost) endlessly reusable. We like these for general use cleaning, and when they become too worn for that, use them on heavier duty cleaning like the oven. After I'm ready to retire my cotton cloths, I use them to wipe my puppy's muddy paws after she comes inside (it rains a lot here in Ohio).
Since they are so reusable, they are extremely economical, so you can keep a large enough supply on hand so you will not run out once you've started to clean.
We wash them with hot water and a little bit of bleach to sanitize them.
Microfiber Cloths:
These give you the option to color code. Color coding gives you a couple of different advantages. a) you can save time by always grabbing the blue cloth for windows and not have to guess, or second guess, if you've already used that cloth on your furniture with polish. b) you can differentiate between cloths that have been used for the toilet and those that you use on your kitchen counters near your food.
Color coding is also potentially going to save you from damages. Use your red or black microfibers on your grunge and grime where you might also be using a scrubbing cleanser. Then you'll never reach for that color when you want to polish a delicate surface, and risk scratching it with any remaining scrubbing residue from your grime cloth.
Here's the color code structure we recommend, but whatever colors you choose, just stick to it:
Blue for glass,
Yellow for furniture polish,
Red for grunge and grime,
Green for everything else.
Now you might also want to have a color code for other things like buffing stainless steel, general Red Juice use, or just for kitchen counters. Whatever you choose, don't change it up.
Lastly for microfiber, a little goes a long way. They do not require as much cleaner or wetness. But they also cannot be washed or dried on high heat, so be careful to wash in cool-warm water and don't use bleach.
I hope this has been helpful! Just remember, in the end, you choose what makes cleaning easier and faster for you.
Here's what a cleaning expert had to say about the two options:
"We prefer a combination of cotton cloths for heavy-duty cleaning, and microfiber for buffing dry and light use cleaning." -Debbie at Buckets and Bows Maid Service

Step-By-Step Guide to Removing a Sticky Buildup on Wood
by Amy Sardone
on Aug 07 2024
Tired of sticky wood floors that never feel truly clean? That tacky film often shows up near kitchens, entryways, and high-traffic paths. The good news: you can remove it without stripping or refinishing when you follow a safe, professional workflow. This guide covers the root causes, the supplies that actually work, and a step-by-step routine to bring back a smooth, squeak-clean finish.
Why Do Wood Floors Get Sticky?
Spills & cooking vapors: sugars, oils, and aerosols settle and bond to the finish.
Residue from the wrong cleaners: soapy or non-neutral formulas leave a film that grabs dirt.
Tracked-in grime: dust + moisture form a tacky layer, especially in busy zones.
Humidity & micro-moisture: damp conditions help soils cling to the surface.
Aging finishes: worn coatings hold onto residues more easily.
What You’ll Need
Sh-Mop (microfiber floor mop) with two pads: one lightly damp for cleaning and one dry for buffing
Bucket with warm water (for diluting the cleaner and wetting pads — always wring very well)
pH-neutral, wood-safe cleaner
Why the Sh-Mop
Even, low-moisture coverage: the microfiber pad holds just enough solution so the floor stays damp, not wet—ideal for finished wood.
Faster, edge-to-edge passes: wide, flat head with 360° swivel reaches along baseboards and under toe-kicks easily.
Streak-reducing microfiber: traps sticky residue and fine dust; pads are lint-free and machine-washable.
Ergonomic workflow: fewer bends and less hand fatigue than cleaning on hands and knees.
Perfect for no-rinse cleaning: clean with a lightly damp pad, then switch to a dry pad to buff—no rinsing required.
How to Clean Sticky Wood Floors (Step-by-Step)
Step 1: Pre-Clean the Area
Move lightweight furniture and obstacles so you can work in smooth, overlapping passes. Good access = faster, better results.
Step 2: Dry Dust with a Microfiber Cloth
Use a clean, dry microfiber cloth to lift loose dust and grit first. This prevents micro-scratches and keeps you from grinding particles into the finish.
Step 3: Introduce a Wood-Safe Cleaner (No Rinse Needed)
Now bring in a pH-neutral formula designed for finished wood floors: Sh-Clean. It’s non-toxic and biodegradable and—used as directed—no rinse is needed at any step. It softens sticky, waxy residue without harming the finish and is a smart choice for homes with kids and pets.
Step 4: Damp-Wipe with the Grain
Dilute Sh-Clean in warm water per label directions.
Wet a microfiber cloth/pad and wring very well—damp, not wet.
Work in small sections, wiping with the direction of the boards.
Because Sh-Clean is no-rinse, go straight to a dry microfiber cloth/pad and buff to reveal a uniform, residue-free sheen.
Step 5: Spot-Treat Stubborn Buildup
For extra-tacky areas, apply a little Sh-Clean directly to a microfiber pad and allow a brief contact time (a few seconds). Wipe with light pressure and buff dry. For edges, seams, and corners, apply Sh-Clean to a soft brush or cotton swab; avoid saturating joints. No rinse is needed.
Step 6: Protect the Finish (No-Residue Routine)
Skip heavy wax layers and avoid non-neutral cleaners that leave a film.
Adopt a simple maintenance flow: damp-clean with Sh-Clean, then buff—no rinse needed.
Add walk-off mats at entries, control humidity, and wipe spills promptly.
Step 7: Nearby Non-Wood? Use Red Juice
Greasy overspray often lands on painted baseboards, laminate, vinyl, or MDF near your wood floor. For those non-wood surfaces, apply Red Juice to a microfiber cloth, wipe, then buff dry. Do not use Red Juice on real wood flooring.
Maintenance Tips (Sticky-Free, Always)
Dry dust with a microfiber cloth several times a week (daily in busy areas).
Damp-clean with Sh-Clean as needed—weekly for most homes, more often near kitchens.
Keep kids and pets off the area until the floor is fully dry.
Bottom Line
Say goodbye to sticky floors with a pro workflow that protects your finish: dry dust → Sh-Clean damp-wipe (no rinse) → buff. Use Red Juice only on nearby non-wood surfaces. The result: a smooth, residue-free floor that’s cleaner, safer, and easier to maintain.
FAQ – Sticky Residue on Wood Floors
Is Sh-Clean no-rinse?
Yes. Damp-clean and buff dry for a residue-free finish.
Is Sh-Clean safe for homes with kids and pets?
Yes. Sh-Clean is non-toxic and biodegradable when used as directed. Keep children and pets off the area until the floor is fully dry.
Can I use Sh-Clean on unfinished (raw) wood floors?
No. Sh-Clean is designed for finished wood floors. It is not intended for unfinished/raw wood. If you’re unsure about your finish, test in a small inconspicuous spot or consult a professional.
Why are my floors still sticky after cleaning?
Likely leftover film from non-neutral cleaners or old wax layers. Repeat a damp-clean with Sh-Clean, then buff dry. Avoid soapy/oily products going forward.
Can I use Red Juice on hardwood?
No. Use Red Juice only on non-wood nearby surfaces (painted baseboards, laminate, vinyl, MDF). For real wood floors, stick with Sh-Clean.
Is a steam mop okay on wood floors?
Not recommended. Steam can force moisture into seams and compromise the finish. Use a damp (not wet) method with Sh-Clean instead.

Cold and flu season arrives along with Fall —achoo!—but we are here to help you clean your house so you’re in the best shape possible to keep your family and yourself healthy all season long. Unfortunately, no one has yet discovered a cure for the cold or flu, but whatever you can do to prevent germs from spreading will make a big difference in your home. Frequently touched contact points The biggest impact you can have is cleaning the spots in your home that are frequently handled by everyone in the house. These include light switches, door knobs, cupboard handles, drawer pulls, refrigerator handles, the coffee pot handle, sink faucets and toilet handles, soap pumps, countertops, table tops, and, of course, your remote controls. And don’t forget the keyboard and mouse of your computer, if applicable. During cold and flu season, try to clean these areas more than usual. Spray some Speed Cleaning™ Red Juice on one of your Speed Cleaning™ Microfiber Dusting and Cleaning Cloths and wipe these contact points down at least once a day. It’s also a good idea to remind your family to wash their hands often. Both of these actions combined will go a long way to protecting the health of your family. Don’t forget to wash sponges and cleaning cloths As you fight the battle against germs, don’t forget to toss the Speed Cleaning™ Microfiber Dusting and Cleaning Cloths into the laundry after use. Otherwise, you’re just spreading the germs from spot to spot. After using sponges in the kitchen or bathroom, you can disinfect by zapping saturated sponges in the microwave for 60 seconds. Wash towels and bedding Towels that everyone dries their hands on should be changed out daily, along with any sheets of a sick person. Fresh sheets and towels will go a long way to making your sick family member feel a little bit better. And germs are contained for the rest of the family by swapping out fresh towels each day. Wipe down surfaces Your coffee table, nightstands, countertops, desks... all these surfaces can get dirty and aren’t cleaned as often as most parts of your house. Be sure to wipe these areas using a little Speed Cleaning™ Red Juice sprayed on one of your Speed Cleaning™ Microfiber Dusting and Cleaning Cloths to clean. Clean your phone Yes, that mobile phone you’re always clutching can have more germs than a toilet seat. Wipe your phone down weekly using a microfiber cloth and a safe cleaner, like Red Juice. Avoid harsh cleaning wipes that could ruin the coating on your phone’s screen. We hope these tips help you keep your house healthy during this cold and flu season. And if you’re the one who’s sick, feel free to pass these tips on to your helper bees so that they can keep the rest of your household in good shape.

Everyone talks about Spring Cleaning as if it’s the only season to thoroughly tidy up your home, but I’m more partial to Fall Cleaning. And now that fall is officially here, I’m ready to get my house in shape for cozy days and longer nights as the sun goes down earlier and earlier.So how can you turn this into a task that seems manageable? Hopefully you’ve been keeping up with your maintenance cleanings every week so you’re not tackling an extremely messy house. If you’re short on time, pick one or two things to take care of per week with an eye toward having your house in perfect shape by the time company arrives for the holidays.Here are a few other tips to make your life easier as you complete your Fall Cleaning:
Make every move count. Be efficient! Work your way around a room once, carrying all your tools and supplies with you in a cleaning apron. Stop wasting energy by darting all around a room, and start cleaning around the room in one direction.
Use the right tools. This is where the apron comes in handy, making it easy to carry your supplies and tools. Stuff garbage or wet sponges into the apron’s pockets to save time.
Work from top to bottom. You can’t fight gravity, so work with it! Clean ceilings and high shelves of dust and bits of grime that will fall to the floor where you can vacuum them up. Start at the top and work your way down.
Don’t overclean things that aren’t dirty. Spot clean areas with your bottle of Red Juice to wipe away fingerprints and move on to the next surface.
Clean surfaces before you rinse or wipe them. Don’t rinse or wipe a surface before it’s really clean.
Know when to give up on a tool. Recognize if the tool you’re using isn’t working instead of using more elbow grease and tiring yourself out unnecessarily.
Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. Your moves get smoother by practicing them over and over. Put your cleaning tools back in the same spot in your apron each time you use them. When pull out your Red Juice, your hand will know exactly where it is in the apron.
Pay attention. Don’t zone out but focus on the task at hand. You may even find that you’re enjoying what you’re doing!
Use both your hands. Don’t leave any scrubbing or wiping capacity idle. Spray with one hand while you reach for the cloth in your apron with the other to wipe up behind it.
Track your time. Note what time you started and stopped and marvel at how much you accomplished.
