Garage Cleaning

With Fall in full-swing you may be considering parking in your garage again.

Step 1: Sweep Or Vacuum To Remove Dust & Loose Debris. Every couple of months you should sweep or vacuum your garage floor. That is really the only maintenance it needs on a regular basis.

Step 2: Wash Entire Floor With A Heavy Duty Cleaner & Degreaser. The problem with garage floors is that they don’t just get normal dirt and mud on them, but because we park our cars over them they also get all types of automotive stains. These stains range from oil and grease, anti-freeze, brake fluid, and transmission fluid to name a few. Many garage floors (but not all) are made of concrete, and since it is a porous surface it absorbs grease and oil easily, and stains.
CAUTION: Be careful not to buy a product that both cleans and etches concrete for cleaning garage floors unless you plan to apply a protective coating to your floors when you’re done.

Step 3: Rinse Floor Finally, with whatever method you choose for cleaning the floor you’ll need to rinse your floor to remove the cleaning residue after you’ve cleaned it. That’s why it’s a good idea to clean your floor after you’ve decluttered and removed things from off the ground, so you don’t accidentally get anything wet while rinsing.
