To prepare a wood floor for mopping, many manufacturers suggest that the surface be vacuumed first to pick up any dust, dirt or sand that could damage the finish. Sweeping not only leaves behind floor matter but the bristles of the broom themselves can also damage a finish. A hard surface vacuum that can clean wood floors effectively and thoroughly is a much better choice.
