dry mop

Waterless floor cleaner

A dry mop is a flat mop with a soft, usually microfiber or electrostatic head designed to pick up dust and debris from hard floors without water or cleaning solution.

Unlike wet mops, dry mops work through friction and static attraction: I run a dry mop over the hardwood before vacuuming.

Also called a dust mop.
