"Scuffed floors are one of the toughest spots in the kitchen to clean. They happen when anything gets dragged against the floor, from shoes to furniture, which happens all too often in the kitchen, as it's easily the busiest room in the house. As you've probably found - and felt frustrated by - scuffs are maddeningly tough to remove and won't budge with your typical floor cleaning routine. Tennis balls, however, are a chemical-free solution for cleaning kitchen floors you may already have in the house."
"They work on a variety of different floor types, too, from hardwood, linoleum, and vinyl to tiles made from porcelain, stone, and ceramic. Their fibers are the perfect texture for buffing out marks - they can get under those surface-level scuffs and remove them without being abrasive enough to damage the floor itself. And this way, you don't need to use any cleaning products that can sometimes be potentially toxic, not environmentally friendly, and pricey."
Tennis balls can remove scuffs from a variety of kitchen floor types, including hardwood, linoleum, vinyl, and porcelain, stone, or ceramic tiles. The ball's fuzzy fibers buff out surface-level marks by getting under scuffs without being abrasive enough to damage the finish. Using a new, clean tennis ball avoids transferring dirt back onto floors. Perform the tennis-ball scrubbing after normal sweeping, mopping, or vacuuming to target remaining marks. Scrub the marked areas directly with the ball. Fashioning a makeshift tennis-ball broom can allow scuff removal without getting down on hands and knees.
