Tips in Cleaning Vinyl and Marble Floors
Vinyl Floors Sweep then damp mop using a gallon of water and a dash of dish washing detergent. No-wax floors eventually need waxing, this will help to prevent further deterioration.
Cleaning Marble (MARBLE IS TRICKY, USE AT YOUR OWN RISK) For heavier stains on marble, take three or four cakes of Ivory soap, cut them up and dissolve in hot water until you have a “slurry.” Paint this on the marble and let it sit for five days or so. If the gunk starts to dry during that time, wet it down. At the end of the period, wash it all off. To remove lighter stains, sprinkle salt on a fresh cut lemon. Rub very lightly over stain. Do not rub hard or you will ruin the polished surface. Wash off with soap and water.
