    My laminate floors were mopped with pinesol how can I get it off?
    Someone mopped my laminate floors by putting pine sol directly on the cloth being used on floor.
    They are a mess - what should I do now? I mopped them with damp mop and they still look bad.
    Thanks for help.

    Usually using a steam mop would do the trick without harming you floors.

    Hi, it sounds like the solution has been put on your floor without diluting it - neat.
    Floor solutions I have used are usually diluted,therefore if this is the case,it could be that the seal on laminated floors has been removed so moping it will be of no use at all, the damage will be done.

    Would it be possible for you to ask a floor specialist to come and take a look at your floors to give you some advise as to the best thing you can do to bring them back to their formal glory.
    It may be that they will have to be striped and resealed,which will bring back the original shine.
