If your hardwood floor is not shining, it might need some polish. Or, it might just be old. I suggest investing in a new hardwood floor if yours is so ancient that it has lost its ability to be lucent.
Or you can have your floors refinished. If they have been sanded recently, you might have a satin sheen in the polyurethane that was applied. If this is the case, all you have to do is re coat it with a semi gloss or gloss polyurethane.
The floors themselves install in a very similar fashion. If you want a floor with a lot of shine, you will want to go with hardwood. If cost is an issue, laminate.
One way to restore a hardwood floor without sanding it is to clean it thoroughly and apply a fresh coat of finish or polish. This can help to rejuvenate the appearance of the floor and cover up minor imperfections. Additionally, using a hardwood floor cleaner and conditioner regularly can help maintain the floor's shine and protect it from wear and tear.
Generally, you can't. Laminate is not like hardwood. It is only a picture of wood with a plastic surface. If it didn't shine when you bought it, there is little you can safely do to make it shine later. Never use any kind of wax or hardwood floor shine on a laminate. This will simply leave you with a mess!
