I tend to use fusion clean and a combination of Microfibre Pads which I soak, squeeze, use, rinse, repeat and a Grey XR Scrub pad which is great but a bit flimsy. I also keep cotton (Texatherm) pads as back up.

It's worth taking your spotting kit too, just in case.

Bonneting only would be last port of call but sometimes my 1st ;D

Or you could call shake and vac martin 606 ;)

Seriously though... ... if only lighlty soiled, bonnet (a good pre vac is essential) . If heavy soiled. extraction then bonnet.

desk moving

In what will be best part of 20 million m2 I have never had to do this.
Accessible areas is what you quote on.
Chairs and bins that's all I would ever move.
