After cleaning,the floor is streaky. We've tried several products without any improvement. Before buying another piece of equipment, we need some direction.

Dry-mop or vacuum floor
This gets rid of all surface dirt and debris.
Mop floor, going with the grain
If your floors are polyurethaned, dampen a mop with water and a few drops of dishwashing liquid. Be sure to ring out the mop thoroughly before using it on the floor. Run the mop back and forth, going with the grain of the wood in smooth strokes.
Tip: If your floors are lacquered or shellacked, dont use water, which can stain the wood and cause buckling.
Buff floor with a cloth
To lift soapy residue after mopping and make your floor shine, hold a soft cloth in your hand and use it to rub the floor gently in a circular motion.
Tip: Cloth diapers work well for buffing, because theyre very soft and absorbent.
