How to get your floors to shine:
Then you will love what I found!
The product is called Quick Shine Floor Finish by Holloway House and it is awesome! It has received the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Safer Choice label. Safe for your family, children and pets.
Here is what my kitchen floor looked like before. This is after I moped, yikes. See how dull and dirty they still looked. The floors really do need to be refinished but I’m just not up for the fumes and havoc right now.
Update 2022: We had our hardwood floors refinished and they look amazing.
The Quick Shine Floor Finish is applied to a clean, dry floor with a damp sponge mop. Just squirt right out of the bottle on to the floor. That’s ALL…It is that easy!
In the picture below you can see where I started from the door and worked toward the table. I stopped to show you the difference with just one coat of Quick Shine. You can do more than one coat, just let it dry in between applications, approximately 30 minutes.
FYI…Be sure to sit the bottle of Quick Shine on a paper plate or towel! OR you might end up with a few shiny spots on your painted TV cabinet that you didn’t want shiny!
It really was simple to use and the fact that it is environmentally friendly makes it even better!
So there you have it, how to get your floors to shine!
Cleaning house can be much easier when things are in the right place to start. I am happy to have found a book that has changed my way of thinking about decluttering my home.

I love it too! I had someone asking about using it on laminate floors, thanks for sharing. Have a great weekend ~Sonya
This is an awesome product. I use it on my hardwood floors. Works well on laminate floors also. I would recommend it to
anyone.
The bottle says for wood, tile and hard surface flooring so I would say, Yes, give it a try! ~Sonya
Can you use it on laminate flooring? If not, what can I use on laminate floors to make them shine?
No, not at all. Feels very clean, love it!
Great to know! Is it slippery?
That is great! I love old floors that get brought back to life!
Sonya, I LOVE this stuff! We used it on my father-in-law’s 60+ year old floors and they looked like new. Had to go back and buy several more bottles just so we won’t be without 🙂
Funny Serena…I don’t mop often! That is why I like this product, looks good a long time!
Wait–you mop??………HA!….just kidding……
With 3 little ones, I struggle to get time to MOP, much less SHINE! But, after seeing these pics, I’m inspired to be a better mom and homemaker. LOL 🙂 Thanks for sharing!

It really works great! Thanks for stopping by my blog.
Wow the shine is amazing I definitely want to try this after seeing your photos! I love that it’s environmentally friendly!
Oh yes, love that stuff, used it for years until we finally refinished our floors last year. (It is a bit stinky ..but does go away fairly quickly)
But it really does work great to shine up floors! I’d bet there are many that don’t know about this quick and easy fix!! 🙂
Hope you are have a great week Sonya! 🙂
It really does work great! It also has a nice clean feeling on bare feet. Thank you so much for your kind comments! ~Sonya
OMWord. I am getting some of that TODAY. I found a Pledge product that put a beautiful shine on my wood floors and when the squirt bottle ran out I could never find it again. Either they changed it or discontinued it because what they sell now just isn’t doing it. And I love that this product is friendly. The difference in the shine on your floors is amazing. Beautiful. Thanks for the tip!
I hate carpet in my main living spaces but I have to say I do like it in my bedrooms! AND the carpet I do have needs cleaning really bad…maybe I should find a product for that 🙂
I can’t wait until I can afford to put hardwoods in my house! I hate my carpet!
Glad to hear! Thanks for sharing! ~Sonya
Used for years–really works.
