They might not stand up to the tried-and-true.

Here Silva-Nash shares thetop productsprofessional cleaners would never buy.

Disinfecting Wipes

We hate to break it to you, but youre probably using yourdisinfecting wipeswrong.

Soap and water work much better to remove bacteria, he says.

There not all theyre made out to be.

Silva-Nash says they can be wasteful, costly, and borderline ineffective.

Instead he recommends stocking up on microfiber cleaning rags, which is what the professionals opt for.

Glossy Floor Cleaners

Beware of floor cleaners that make promises of extra glow or shine.

Not to mention, removing it will require you to strip the floor.

To avoid this scenario, Silva-Nash simply recommends using an appropriate floor cleaner, rather than wax.

Continue to properly spread the already applied shine instead of spraying more on that fridge front, advises Silva-Nash.

Be careful with cleaners that mix in other products for effectiveness, says Silva-Nash.
