There's a bottle of pledge in the cupboard, so I tried that (may as well use it up) with my Coates enjo style mop but it left the floor dull and streaky. Any tips to stop that?

You could try Vinegar with some eucalyptus oil, dishwash detergent or the Pledge Wood Magic - I use the Decor speed mop (or called something to that effect) - it has a microfibre side to it.

We have jarrah floorboards, and I was reading the other day that for them you should use a broom wrapped in stocking or pantihose. Then use a mix of 1 cup vinegar, 2 cups tea made up in a bucket of water. Then dry as you go. Now, I haven't tried the broom trick because I just use old towels but the tea/vinegar mix works great on ours!

Thanks Lee! And that doesn't leave your floors streaky or dull?

Thanks Boo Boo, tried pledge but it left the floors streaky and dull.

So I might try drying as I go then and see if that works?
