I also have the laminate floors and have exactly the same problem. I will never have laminate again. I have used every mop and head out there. I've tried almost every cleaner from special laminate cleaner, vinegar and water and windex. I still have streaks and I can still see all the footprints. I am using the velcro cover that you are talking about right now because I've tried almost everything else. If anyone comes up with the answer, I'd also love to know.

I have laminate in my kitchen and have found that most of the cleaners that you spray on and mop do leave a residue. not so much streaks, as a sticky residue that sticks to our shoes.....so white vinegar is what I use. White vinegar will also cut any grease that is on the floor. I have used a regular Swiffer mop, but use a piece of terry towel, or even an old bathcloth instead of the throw-away pad, and it works quite well. But my favorite is a small
regular cotton rag mop...(no nylon or synthetic)....put water and vinegar in a bucket, dip the mop in and ring it as dry as possible and go to it. My floor is always shiny and there is no "sticky" when we walk on it.

I guess there are lots of ways to do this and we each have to try different ideas until we find the one that works best for us.

Hugs,
Claudia
