It seems that wiping the table simply, but in fact there are many questions hidden. If the method is wrong, it will not only fail to achieve the cleaning effect, but may instead push the dirt more easily, causing bacteria to grow rapidly and increase the risk of food poisoning during the hot season. Professional organizing and storage consultant with hotel and restaurant cleaning experience asked Ito Maki to share the correct wipe skills and cleaning points.

Secret example: When wiping, you need to "moisturized cloth + dry cloth" and double-tube

Ito, who has a well-known hotel and restaurant cleaning staff, said that the most important basic principle of wiping the desktop is: "Wipe with a moisturized cloth and then finish it with a dry cloth."

She pointed out that many people put the tables on their own and let the tables dry naturally after using a wet cloth, but if the tabletop material is easy to absorb water, it may cause fading, mold and other problems. It is recommended to wipe it again with a clean cloth.

In addition, remember to use clean rags every time. If you use a rag of super-fine material, it will not only firmly remove dirt and will not easily leave water marks or scratches.

Secret 2: The wipe direction should be "straight line without turning back".

The wipe method is also very good. Many people are used to wipe back, such as from right to left, and then from left to right, but Ito emphasizes that wiping back can easily cause dirty and stains to stain the desktop again. The correct method is to "wipe it in a straight direction", such as wiping from the innermost side of the table toward oneself, or wiping from right to left single direction.

This method can allow dirt to be pushed out in the same direction without turning back and dirting the cleaned area. At the same time, don’t forget the corners and edges of the table. These places are the easiest to be overlooked but also the easiest to accumulate dirt.

Secret Three: Adjust the cleaning method of the desktop according to the material of the desktop. The cleaning method must also be adjusted accordingly:

Wooden table: Use a dry moist cloth to wipe it to avoid water loss for a long time, so as to avoid water loss or color change. At the same time, avoid using alcohol or sterilization spray to avoid damage to the surface.

Mei Nei dish plate (common plastic combinatorial): You can use clean water to wipe it in daily life. If there is dirt, you can use a Meinai Shibashi to wipe it lightly. But be careful that this material is easy to scratch and avoid excessive force.

Glass desktop: Dirt is easy to spot. You can spray alcohol first and then wipe it with a dry super-fine fiber cloth. It can quickly remove handprints and oil stains and make the glass shine bright again.

Although it is just a simple desktop wipe for daily use, just a little adjustment of the tool selection and wiping method can greatly improve the cleaning effect. Especially the dining table is used to eat every day, and it should be kept clean and healthy.
