why do floors look hazy after using Bona?
378697
The only time mine have looked hazy after using Bona was when there was already something on the floor that hadn't been removed well prior, such as tracking from snow/salt, etc., or the pad on my mop needed changed. Changing the pad and re-cleaning usually resolves the issue.

You could either be using too much product, or you are removing the polish and that can make the floors look gray or hazy. Use just a little polish and only use the cleaner. Hope that helps

It is not recommended, but I have used it for years and my floors still look like new. I also use the Bona floor cleaner and the floors look terrific.

My guess is that your floor has wax on it. You can buff the floor to regain the shine.

I had "flakes" that were more brown than black when I recently bought a new house - - - - Used the Leisure Time - twice... ---- no more flakes or funk? I would think it is worth a try (unless the flakes are mold coming from the air induction tubing?) - - - -

The Bona product leaves the floors shining, and in great condition. My installer recommended the product, and I love it!

After initial application, the floor will have a slight haze. Barely noticeable. There isn't any interference with cleaning. By the way, the product works great.

They use to be clear now the pods are yellowish. They recently added a "natural cleaning stain booster" to the Free & Clear detergent. It's on their web site http://www.all-laundry.com/. I haven't figured out what the "Natural" stuff is yet.

You should see some moisture on the floor---not a lot. Do you water in the water container? If so, contact manufacturer.

...apply BONA with a scrub sponge ( that was soaked in water and ammonia)....work in small areas....let sit for a while..keep moist...wipe with dry rag then rinse with damp rag...need a lot of elbow grease if floor is really bad...BONA WORKS!!!

It's really a soft "dust mop". It is less likely to scratch if that's a concern. We use the Bona products exclusively after we had our new hardwood floor installed. We use the Swifter for tile surfaces. ope this helps you.

I had that problem when I first started using Bona but then found that I wasn't wetting the mop sufficiently before I started. In addition to lightly spraying the floor, you need to make sure the mop itself is well wetted, and then it glides easily over the floor.

I don't recall details ....th BONA site had detail discussion on this topic. I have just started using BONA on my wood and tile floors and never had the need to remove .... I do recall a very specific discussion on "polish" vs refresher. Polish is what you need to concern yourself with for removal whereas refresher was easier to deal with

I have had the same cloudiness issue. I found by using a damp paper towel, after it has been in the dishwasher, it becomes clear again. I thought is was the fault of my dishwasher or the soap I was using.

I would try a Mixture of Proxide and Water. Proxide will help keep the tile White,as it Cleans. For the 21oz bottle Go 4oz of Proxide and the rest Water. With the micro fiber you will see more dirt come off the Floor. Hope this works for you.

It has a ammonia smell that disappears. This doesn't bother me as I've been using a homemade recipe of Vinegar, Rubbing Alcohol and Dish Soap. The floor does tend to be a bit slippy after using Rejuvenate. Also a few white streaks do show up from over spraying. This is easy to resolve by wiping up the excess.

You are doing nothing wrong. All that mop and the Bona does is spread the dirt around. It does not "trap" dirt and remove it from the floor. If you keep using that you will have a sticky film on your floor that takes 20-30 moppings to get it off. Terrible stuff.

Bona makes another product that is not a cleaner--it is a polish type product. It is a disaster. I used it and it never dried-- left a sticky mess on my hardwood floor which had to be removed with Krud Cutter, a plastic scraper, ammonia, and ten hours on my hands and knees. I also tried the Bona cleaner after that (you would think I would've been smarter than that) and it left a greasy looking film. So I'm back to my good old vinegar and water followed by a dry mop. Works great. Floors are great.
