Should Murphy's Oil Soap always be diluted?

Have used this product for years and I would have to say yes. The reason is because it may leave a slight film when it is not diluted. Please know that I have, on occasion, used it straight in order to remove stains from my wood. 99% of the time, I dilute it, though. I hope that this answers your inquiry satisfactorily. Best of luck to you!

I wish I could see the instructions - I assume this is a product that you dilute in a bucket of water? Do you need to rinse the floor after washing i

You use 1/4 c. soap in 1 gallon of warm water. I have never rinsed the floor afterward, but I do make sure that I get up all excess with a soft, dry towel or rag.

is murphy soap harmful for cabinets

No absolutely not my experience! I have used Murphy's Oil Soap since I was a girl. My Mother had me cleaning real wood cabinets, real wood paneling, etc. Some of the benefits and uses of Murphy's Oil Soap are: It smells fresh; it cleans without leaving a soapy residue as long as you do not use too much; cuts through grease that you may encounter on cabinets and paneling; great in luke warm water for wood floors (not laminate). I love, love, love Murphy's Oil Soap. Now, if you are not certain that you want to commit to a 32oz bottle, then may I suggest that you find a smaller bottle to test how you like this product.I hope that I have answered your question about Murphy's Oil Soap. Best of luck!
