This might be leftover from past cleaners used on the floor surface. Use the
Sonic
Steam Pocket ™ Mop a few more times and see if the leftover cloudiness is
removed. If this does not work, we suggest rinsing the floor with water, letting it
dry, and then steam mopping again with a clean pad. One or more rinses generally
removes the residue. A more stubborn case may require you to rinse the floor with a
mix of one part vinegar and two parts water.
