I am assuming that you have sealed the floor. No this has not left any oily residue at all-it shines the wood well and it dries fast

I used oil base stain and it worked great. Test with spray settings first for better control.

I can't say for sure not knowing what the finish is on your floor. We have Bellawood down and have never had a problem with the cleaner. It does a good job at cleaning and after 10 years of use the floor finish is as good as when I put it down.

Not sure I would use this on hardwood floors, unless you have/use a buffer. Since it is a wax, it is best left on to dry, then rubbed off. I use Murphy's oil soap on my floors, and have good results.

do not use on wood. You won't be able to clean the residue off.No need to worry about spills. This is a paste or heavy cream.

I would not use this product. I used it on my wood and tile floors and ended up with a mess. I had to hand clean & rinse the floors and the residue left took several cleanings to fully remove.

NO!!! This tape is AWESOME! We had it down for several months on our hardwood; it was a bit difficult to peel (kept splitting into thinner strips), simply because it had been vacuumed, mopped, played on, etc. There was absolutely ZERO residue.My husband (carpenter, home improvement contractor, wood floor snob ;) ) LOVES this product, and so do my 3 yr old son and 7 yr old daughter.I'm a hero w this stuff!

Hi Walter, I have laminate floors and they looked better than new after I used this stuff. I used the renew stuff without using the cleaning product they recommend first, and it still looked great. The shine lasts for a good long time, and when you want it to look like new again, just apply this stuff (simple) and let it dry... It's easy to apply, you just squirt it on the floor and then use a clean sponge type mop with a clean cloth on it to spread it around.....

I have 1952 solid wood also. This spray is good for quick cleaning, but over time takes away the glow I was getting when I used Murphy's in a bucket of hot water then occasionally (every few mops) alternated in Orange Glow.

I only used this product on wood, so I can't help you. It was very good on the wood flooring.

I did not strip the floor...I just used a solution of Murphy's oil to remove excess dirt and grime...

I personally like Bona over all the leading brands. No it doesn't leave it oily. The shine is only from the laminate or stone beneath it. I use it on my tile floors and the laminate. I won't use anything else. Had bad experiences with others.

My perception was that if oil or grease had penetrated the wood grain the cleaner would not remove them. It seemed to me best for removing relatively superficial grime and otherwise preparing the wood for the stain to be applied after.

Yes. I have 90 year old mahogany floors that are unfinished. I stripped the old wax off the floors then applied new stain to the floors followed by Rejuvenate. It smooths out the imperfections in the old floor and looks great. It is holding up quite well but I did notice that dripping anything acidic on the floor (vinegar, lemon/lime juice) leaves a small whitish spot on the floor. I assume this is due to the liquid reacting with the Rejuvenate.

It does leave an oily residue behind. However, painting over spots with Kilz and then repainting eliminates the problem.

I love bona polishI use it on my Real Hardwoods and pergo laminate wood. and less expensive ikea wood laminatethe only warning-- never spill any Clorox or rubbing alcohol on the bona finished floors -- it turns white milky coloreven that is easily fixed by wiping spill with water and reapplying bona polish.it's the ONLY product I can fine that puts a nice clean shine on all my wood and laminate wood floorshope that helps : ).

This is an excellent cleaning product to cut grease , dirt, and grime , but it probably would eat the wax off your floors , instead of shine enhancing! There is a natural cleaning company called Method, and I have seen floor care products from them, check them out, and I hope you find something that fits your need! Take care , James L.
