We use Method Wood For Good floor care floor cleaner to keep our aged wood floors looking sparkling clean, partially because of the bonus effect of an almost mouth-watering almond scent. But that doesn't mean we haven't stopped looking for alternatives, especially ones with chemical-free formulas.
A few years back, the ATNY team spotlighted the enviro-friendly Bioshield for their non-toxic, low VOC and 98% naturally derived paints, stains and finishes. But now they've supplemented their product line with some floor care products that might give the Method cleaner some competition, not because what they contain, but what they've left out.
i was under the impression that you weren't supposed to use products on hard wood floors? is this one of those examples that is the exception to the rule and is actually good for the wood?

substance12 - I also thought the same. But I'm also confused by this because I ocassionally hear of wood floor cleaners, as with these. What's the deal?
I don't wash my wood floors (not that I really wash any floors, but that's something different...), although I will spot clean when needed with either a wet paper towel or with Murphy oil wood floor wipes.

ive never heard that you arent supposed to clean hardwood floors...and ive had them all my life. i stand by Murphys Oil Soap to clean my floors and my wood furniture. its what my mom always used and i love the smell, plus it takes good care of the wood.
although i recently moved into an apartment with "fake" hardwood and i clean it with the Method almond stuff. its very easy to use in the squirty bottle and it smells nice...

What I don't understand is how can it take care of the wood if the wood is coated with a shiny protective coat? Does the Murphy's soap get through that surface?
