I have a laminate floor, probably the cheapest made. When I mop it all it does is streak no matter what I use. I usually use vinegar and water. I have used Mr. Clean, but it leaves it sticky.
Any suggestions would be wonderful, tried of dull, sticky, streaky floors. Help!!

I recommend Bruce Hardwood and Laminate Floor Cleaner sold in the flooring department of either Lowes or HomeDepot. (It comes in a green spray bottle.) I've been using it on my laminate floors since they were installed almost 5 years ago and I have never had any problems with dull, streaky or sticky floors. Dampen your mop, spray a little of the cleaner directly on the floor (or your mop). A little goes a long way (after almost 5 years, I still have a little left in my 1st bottle), plus you don't want to get laminate too wet. I do keep my mop rinsed out but I don't rinse the cleaner off the floor.

Ammonia and water and I use windex when in a hurry , I also mop in the direction of wood grain . I have had my floors for 10 years and they still look great . If you have been using mr clean you may have to mop a few times with ammonia to get soap off of floors to get back the shine .
