Yes - have used this happily for over 2 years (till this week) . Two coats gives the best shine ever which you can clean & top-up, but there are some drawbacks.
Application : you must do it evenly or you will end up with a patchy high shine / non shine floor. My original Vileda mop left "ridge" marks so in the end it was a hands & knees job. It ruins any mops you use unless they're cleaned to within an inch of their lives.

Build up : After 2 years use & cleaning my floor was getting dull and covered in scuff marks from rubber soles etc so I bought some Quick Shine Deep Clean remover this week. OMG what a carry-on. Another hands & knees job & this time with a scrubbing brush. Am now left with a dull floor with sticky patches all over where the original product hasn't totally dissolved. Looks like it's going to be a wire wool job. So far taken me 3 days work for a large hall floor & nowhere near finished.

I think on balance I'd say Don't Use It unless you are happy to put in the work required down the line & you have VERY HEALTHY KNEES.

We have engineered wood so don't fancy having to scrub it with wire wool at any time soon
