Older rental home with fake wood look floor- dull, how to shine/polish?
Use a liquid wax removing floor cleaner
rinse the floor completely clean with a mop
apply traditional liquid floor wax with an applicator or soft clean string mop


The floor will have a nice shine. This is how commercial floors in department stores look so nice and shiny. The drawback is that this has to be repeated every so often depending on traffic and abuse.
