Pine-Sol

How to Clean Linoleum

Is Pine-Sol safe to clean vinyl floors with? Yes. Vinyl floors can be cleaned with diluted Pine-Sol just like linoleum. Linoleum is made from natural materials, while vinyl is synthetic and more water resistant, but both surfaces tolerate damp mopping. Using the same mild Pine-Sol solution works well for routine cleaning, though it’s a good idea to test a small area first.
