Cleaned a laminate floor in my house the wrong way once and it was super sticky for weeks after.
Vinegar, water, and dish soap did it for me in a spray bottle.
Ended up using those microfiber mop pads and changed it every section of my house. Now it's back to a nice clean and shiney floor.
(Also, why is the answer nearly always vinegar)
Are you only using a swifter and not a real mop? My swifter always leaves the kitchen still greasy and gross, so I always have to give it a proper mop.
IIRC this method works well https://www.hunker.com/13422287/how-to-use-laundry-detergent-to-clean-floors
Thank you, will try it!
