The cleaners we have at the church claim they've used good janitorial

tacky/stickiness to the floor, so I suspect years' worth of build-up
that just won't come off without either a really strong almost floor
stripper (which I'm told you NEVER use on no-way flooring) or
scrubbing and scrubbing and scrubbing and...

I was hoping there was a simpler solution I wasn't aware of, but it
looks like I'm gonna have to recruit some members who have loads of
elbow grease to share and are willing to get on their knees for
something that doesn't involve praying (unless you count "Oh, God, my
knees hurt!").
