The best and the right way to do it is to hire a buffing machine and buff the floor with a 100 grid sanding screen(light buffing).Then get a good quality varnish(Bona) in silkmatt or gloss finish i you want to be realy shiny.Aplly then a realy thick coat of varnish and your floor is ready. If you requied more information or tips don't hesitate to contact me.

Thats the one 
When we wanted to bring our wood floors up nicely last year we used a rotary cleaning machine (like you see them using at airports etc.) with what looked like a big round green brillo pad under it to remove the old varnish and clean the ground in dirt off. Then, once dry, we applied a liquid varnish (using a spray bottle) and used a mop to evenly distribute it. Two or three coats of that resulted in a lovely gloss effect
