For people who have used this to disinfect floors, do you use it undiluted? Also, is this appropriate for granite, wood, stone?

This is a disinfectant when used full strength (shake contents to mix) and spray or apply to surface & in 10 minutes the disinfecting is complete. You allow it to dry on the surface you applied it to, and do not rinse it off. Benefect is not designed to be a cleaner, just a great disinfectant. House hold traditions dot com has all the data. Personally I would use on granite, wood & stone by spraying a layer on after cleaning or dusting the surface. I do not have any experience cleaning granite, but have never had any issues with Benefect leaving an unwanted residue or stain issue. I use a steam mop on my laminate wood floors and if I wanted to use Benefect on my floors, I would either spray them after cleaning or apply full strength and go over the floor with a Benefect soaked rag or mop. It depends how much disinfecting is needed I guess. When we used it in the office to disinfect special water submersed tools, we would soak the tools in a diluted solution (water & Benefect), thoroughly rinse the tool as the water had crud in it from soaking, and then spray on the Benefect and let dry. Tropical traditions also has Benefect data.

I've been using it on my granite counter top for several months now and have not noticed any issues. I try to use a specific granite cleaner as often as possible (I like Method) - because those have ingredients that help prolong the sealant on the granite. But the Seventh Generation soap is very mild and has not caused any issues for me so far.

I have tile floors so I checked the bottle. It doesn't say anything about it being harmful to wooden floors.

You can use it on any sealed surface. Considering, that finished wood floors, tile, laminate, linoleum are all sealed surfaces, this product cleans the surface. You not actually cleaning the wood, you're cleaning the sealed surface on top of spots and debris that can wear down the finish.I have a polyurethane finished dining room table that I squirt the bona cleaner on and wipe off with paper towels.Floor cleaner is like water and Windex mixed, you're cleaning the same as spots off glass.

I used this for my wood flooring,Brazilian cherry wood. I used a diluted solution, 5 parts water to 1 part Trewax,the wood came out beautiful.

Yes, I have engineered hardwood floors and this works fine. I like that I can also use it on the granite (leaves no streaks unlike BioKleen bathroom formula).

I only used it on the cabinets in my house, kitchen, bathrooms, laundry room. I didn't try it on my hardwood floors since it has petroleum distillate in it and I have pets who lick their feet. I also used it only when I could have a lot of windows open to air the room and house. You need to wear gloves when you use this product.

Sorry, I don't know. I use it on my granite counter tops and it works greats. It's not that harsh so I don't think it would hurt it. I have used occasionally it on tumbled marble and it works fine.

I was curious myself because I have marble with grout, so I called the manufacturer. They told me that you can use this product on anything that is safe to put water on. So it should be safe to use on just about anything. I have used Tech Grout Cleaner for a while and love it. I have never found anything that worked to clean the light colored grout on my ceramic tile kitchen floor until I used this product. There is no need to use gloves. No fumes. It requires "very little" scrubbing to come clean. It's a great product. I just ordered 4 more bottles.

This particular solution is concentrated and the instructions call for 1.5oz of cleaning solution and the remaining is plain/distilled water. I use this with my Power-fresh. Nothing like sanitization and a fresh smell of a clean floor. I hope this helps.

I used it on polyurethane finish hardwood floors. Love it, bring out the beauty again. I have dogs and they bring in sand which was taking the finish off where they laid down. I only use it about every other month and it lasts a long time. Highly recommend.

The Urine Destroyer bottle recommends spot treatment by undiluted product, soaking. If you used it undiluted in a machine, it might work. You would want to avoid heating the product because it uses enzymes that might be destroyed by heat. But...This company makes a list of related products. Try looking online or at PetSmart for other Nature's Miracle products. My local store (Southcenter) carries 6 or 7 different ones. I have Urine Destroyer, Pet Block, and Hard Floor Cleaner to protect new hardwood floors from an elderly dog who doesn't always make it out on time. All three of these products work great. No problems.

I am not a chemist but I use it everywhere it is needed. Carpets, sinks, tile floors, etc. Never had a problem. If you are asking if it would be effective in killing mold, mildew, etc. then I would give you a strong yes.

Mine was used on hardwood, vinyl, and stone. Unfortunately I had to send mine back after a few months because it quit working. Right now I'm just dampening a swiffer dry cloth and cleaning the floors with vinegar and water solution. Sorry, but I've gone through 2 brands of steamer mops, and think I'll just quit while I'm ahead.

It's a sealer with a gloss finish. I'm not sure what you're using it on, but it's meant for absorptive surfaces like rough stone and grout. It's not meant for an already sealed surface or a very smooth surface like granite. Be careful not to let water sit on it for too long. If water sits on the finish, it gets kind of soft and milky. I used it on the slate tile backsplash of our kitchen and it worked perfectly.

Yes I use it as a ready to use spray. I also use it on my wood and marble flooring.I even use it on my clothes and I only do that just in case my dogs even think of soiling there. Its a great product..

I'm not sure about this because I have never tried it. The bottle does say that it is safe to use in all refillable spay mops. I have never had a problem with this leaving a film on my laminate wood floors.
