      Dirty, definitively dirty… 🙂

      It is dirty because the detergent is soiling the surface in the local area, and elsewhere where there is no detergent there will be germs and bacteria.

      Hmmm, tricky… I would say not clean but as soon as you wipe the detergent, then it’s clean, no? 😉

      What would you say? 😉

      Depends how long you leave the detergent – on my floor it would need to be a t least half an hour, so if you’ve only just spilled it, it’s still dirty 😉

      The floor would then be clean but the detergent on the floor would become dirty! lol
      Actually, you’d need to scrub the floor to get all the dirt off, even if detergent spilled (unless you had a fairly clean floor already) as detergent alone can’t get the really ground in dirt off without some friction.
