Default How do you clean your Hardwood Floors?

I will be getting Hardwood Floors soon and would like some advise on how to clean them and keeping them nice for years to come.

Bona is okay but will leave a buildup after a few years' use. Bruce is a much better product IMO. You can occasionally but it at Ace's but easier to and cheaper at Lowe's. It is in wood section, not with cleaning supplies.

Dry mop your floor with a microfiber mop between cleaning. Where necessary, spray a little of the product of your choice directly on the mop. About every other month, spray your mop to do the entire floor, using a little product at a time. You will only need to spray directly on the wood for serious stains.

I don't have hardwood, but laminate. I use cleaning vinegar with water and it works fine.

Does any product work to remove the build-up with Bona? It seems to be a very good product, for hardwood floors?

I use a microfiber mop and a tiny spritz of water.
