First, you must decide whether the floor is sticky because of residue of cleaning products built up on the surface, or whether the finish itself is damaged by chemicals. If it is truly damaged, there is no repair possible. You must replace the floor.
But if it's just buildup, use a cleaner such as glass cleaner containing alcohol, or a solution of 4 parts water to one part vinegar, and gently scrub the floor clean until all the residue is gone. Do not wet-mop. Ever. Polish as necessary with a clean, dry cloth.
Then in the future, remember to always use cleaners designed for laminate floors. It's also safe to use glass cleaner with alcohol, or vinegar and water solution. Do NOT use any harsh cleansers, oil-based products, wax, or floor finishes. Remember, your laminate is NOT wood - it is plastic.
Lightly mist the cleaner on the floor or on the head of your DAMP sponge mop or swiffer-type mop. Then swipe clean. Never, ever pool cleaner on the floor or wet mop.
