Vinegar and water.



This !
barely dampened mop or cloth.
Any type of soap will leave a film.

We have prefinished wood if that matters but they come out very shiny with nothing but the vinegar and water. I've never used any kind of polish or cleanser. I've used my steam mop a handful of times with just water but that's it.

My floor refinisher recommended Poly Care.

I've used Bona too. But I think Poly Care works better.
