How do I get rid of filmy residue or footprints on prefinished or laminate hardwood? I have tried bono hardwood cleaner. Did not correct problem. I have tried distilled vinegar and warm water mixture one to three ratio. Did not work. I have mopped a small area and immediately then go back n dry with microfiber cloth . I can not find a product to clean floor that doesn’t leave a residue which shows footprints
