Hi Moe,
Here's a video with some great information about cleaning and making hardwood floors shine. One thing that is possible is the there might be a wax buildup on your floors that will affect the shine. If you have a wax buildup, it can be removed with mineral spirits and steel wool. The second video explains how to do that. Wishing you the best.

Begin by clearing the floor of any furniture that's easy to move. Then dry-mop or vacuum. This gets rid of any surface dirt and any debris. Next mop the floor, going with the grain. If your floor is polyurethaned, dampen a mop with water and a few drops of dish washing liquid. And, last, buff the floor with a soft cloth.
