Use the same methods to floors and ceilings.
Just as wood floors become dusty and dirty over time, so do finished wood ceilings. Cleaning a ceiling can seem a bit overwhelming for many homeowners. To clean a new wooden tongue and groove ceiling, you can use the same method used to clean a wooden floor or wood paneling. The most important thing is that you'll need a step ladder or cleaning tools with extension poles that allow you to reach the ceiling.
Instructions
1. Set up the step ladder to make it easier to reach the ceiling's surface. Attach the extension pole to the dust mop.
2. Sweep the static-cling dust mop back and forth across the ceiling to remove any dust or loose debris. Wear safety goggles to prevent knocking dust into your eyes.
3. Use a vacuum to clean up the dust and debris knocked from the ceiling to the floor.
4. Dab a small amount of oil soap onto a sponge. Use the oil soap sponge to wipe away any dirt on the wooden ceiling and polish the wood finish.
5. Allow the surface to air dry to prevent any damage to the wooden surface.
