The Rules of Cleaning - 5+6


I have some more of those fabulous rules for cleaning for you today. Some of them may seem like common sense to some of you but you’ll be amazed by how not considering just one of these points can cause a lot of hassle for you and your staff. Having a clean, safe and hygienic place of work really does make a huge difference to morale.

5.  Start soft
When cleaning it is a good idea to start with the softest and gentlest approach first. Use the softest cleaning equipment with the least harmful and well diluted cleaning product as your starting point if you are unsure of how to clean. Use more aggressive techniques and cleaning chemicals only if you have to. Cleaning equipment like steel wool can seriously damage surfaces so you wouldn’t want to start off with it. Harsh cleaning chemicals can also cause damage to the item being cleaned as well as being more likely to cause damage to the environment. Start soft and gentle, you can always be more aggressive later.


6.   Time is on your side
One of the things that make cleaning products work better is contact time. So let your cleaning products do the work for you. Spray or wipe the cleaning product onto the item being cleaned and leave it for a couple of minutes to activate. Don’t leave it too long or it might dry out. When you come back to wipe it off chances are that you will only need to wipe it away rather than scrub at it.
