We've tried white spirt, hot water, wickes decorators wipes but they all

Anyone able to suggest anything?

I'd try steel wool soaked in the oil you used to finish the floor,
then wipe with a lint-free cloth.

Hi,

Brass wool is better for oak as any fragments of steel that get stuck
in the wood could/will react with the tannins and blacken the wood.
