4. Rinse (If Needed)
For high-gloss floors like polished wood or tile, follow with a quick rinse of clean water and dry immediately to avoid streaks.
🚫 What Not to Do
While vinegar is incredibly effective, here are a few precautions:

 - Test a small area first, especially on delicate surfaces like natural stone or untreated wood.
 - Don’t mix vinegar with bleach or ammonia — it creates harmful fumes.
