Restoring Shine to Laminated Hardwood Flooring

Any suggestions for restoring shine to laminate hardwood flooring? High traffic and kids cleaning have left it rather dull. Anyone tried liquid or paste wax? That is what I have thought about using.

I buy a product from Donaslett.com that works great ... called Hard Floor Restorer (but it is for laminate). It gives a nice shine for awhile, but doesn't leave a residue.

I was in a shop recently and noticed the laminated flooring was painted with glossy gym sealer. It looked good, but I don't know how long it would hold up before having to repaint it.

Vinyl and wood floors lose their luster over time. You can go to a big box store and buy no-wax products for restoring luster. Bruce's Fresh Finish is one brand. Read the directions. Some of these products will not work over a wax surface. (If water is left on the floor, this means you have a wax finish.)
