How to use: Dusting Mop PadUpdated 3 days ago

TL;DR: The Dusting Mop Pad is designed for dry use with the Spray Mop. Attach it to the mop head and glide it across the floor with no spray and no cleaner, to pick up hair, pet fur and loose dust before you wet mop. Remove it over a bin, shake it clean, and machine wash it cold when build-up is heavy.

How to use: Dusting Mop Pad

Attach the Dusting Mop Pad to the Spray Mop head, then glide it dry across the floor with no spray and no cleaning solution to trap hair, pet fur and loose dust. Hold the mop over a bin to remove the pad so the trapped dust does not fall back onto the floor, give it a shake, then swap to a cleaning pad, either the green Deep Clean or the blue Everyday, and wet mop with Universal Cleaner.

Step by step

The Dusting Mop Pad is a dry tool. It comes before the wet clean, not instead of it.

1 Attach it to the Spray Mop. Press the pad onto the hook-and-loop mop head, aligned and secure.

2 Glide it dry across the floor. No spray, no cleaner. Long sweeping strokes, and the pad traps hair, pet fur and loose dust as you go.

3 Remove it over a bin. Hold the mop over a bin and detach the pad carefully, so the trapped dust does not fall back onto the floor.

4 Shake it out. Give the pad a good shake over the bin or outside to release the captured dust and debris.

5 Swap to a cleaning pad and wet mop. Switch to the green Deep Clean Mop Pads or the blue Everyday Mop Pads and mop with Universal Cleaner.

Why pre-dust before mopping?

Wet mopping over loose dust and hair drags debris around the floor and leaves streaks. Pre-dusting with the Dusting Mop Pad lifts that loose layer first, so the wet clean actually cleans the floor rather than pushing grime into the edges. It makes mopping quicker and the result cleaner, and it keeps grit from being ground into the finish.

Pre-dusting protects your wet clean

Wet mopping over loose dust and hair drags debris around the floor and leaves streaks. Lifting that loose layer first means the wet clean is doing real work instead of pushing grime into the edges.

It also protects the floor. Grit that gets ground into a finish by a wet pad does more damage over time than the mopping itself.

Can I use the Dusting Mop Pad wet?

No. The Dusting Mop Pad is a dry pre-mop tool, used with the Spray Mop with no spray and no cleaner. For wet mopping, swap to the green Deep Clean Mop Pads for a heavier scrub or the blue Everyday Mop Pads for a lighter daily clean, with Universal Cleaner in the bottle. If the dusting pad ever feels dry and ineffective, a quick rinse under water and a shake reactivates the pickup.

How do I clean the Dusting Mop Pad?

Shake the pad out over a bin or outside after each use to release most of the trapped dust and hair. For heavier build-up, machine wash it cold on a gentle cycle. Skip fabric softener, which coats the fibres and reduces the dust-trapping ability, and skip bleach. Air-dry it flat or hanging in the shade, and never tumble dry. For stubborn dirt, rinse it under cold water before washing.

Between uses

Shake the pad out over a bin or outdoors to release most of the trapped dust and hair. That is enough for light sessions. Save the machine wash for genuinely soiled pads.
