A method of cleaning a surface includes steps of (1) positioning a brush in contact with the surface; (2) rotating the brush relative to a drum about a second axis; and (3) rotating the drum relative to a bracket, supporting the drum, about a first axis, parallel to the second axis, such that the brush orbitally revolves about the first axis.

A method of cleaning a floor includes providing a floor cleaning apparatus with a cleaning pad having at least two parallel strips of material including at least one strip of relatively lower absorbency material, and at least one strip of relatively higher absorbency material. All of the strips of relatively lower absorbency material and relatively higher absorbency material are substantially equal height and form a substantially coplanar floor engaging surface. The floor engaging surface has a total surface area formed by the strips of relatively lower absorbency material and relatively higher absorbency material that comprise most of the total surface area of the floor engaging surface. A cleaning pad displacement apparatus is also provided. The method of cleaning the floor further incudes displacing the cleaning pad across the floor with the cleaning pad displacement apparatus.
