Troubleshooting
Streaky residue on floors
Ensure the product is adequately diluted with water. Using too much soap can lead to streaks. Also, check that your mop is clean and free of old dirt or debris.
Product does not seem to be cleaning effectively
For tougher grime, try using a slightly more concentrated solution or allow the diluted solution to sit on the stain for a few minutes before wiping. Ensure you are using clean water.
Unpleasant odor after cleaning
The natural ingredients may produce a distinct scent. If the odor is concerning, ensure proper ventilation during and after cleaning. The scent should dissipate as the floor dries.
