Hardwood Floors
DIRECTIONS:
- Dust mop all particles from floor.
- Use mineral spirits to remove any dirt or old wax buildup. A piece of steel wool can be used in heavily soiled areas.
- Apply Clear Paste Wax with a soft cloth or fine steel wool pad. Paste Wax should be applied going with the wood grain and spread evenly across the floors surface. Allow about one hour to dry and buff with a floor buffer or soft cloth.
- When faced with old hardwood floors worn down by heavy traffic, utilize the Clear Paste Wax following steps 1, 2, and 3 above. Apply two coats of wax in extremely worn areas.
- When you desire a hard shell acrylic appearance on your wood floor, use Trewax® Hardwood Floor Refinisher. Apply one or two thin coats with a lambs wool applicator or soft cloth. Allow about one hour to dry. No buffing required. This is a permanent finish and cannot be removed. Reapply as needed.
REGULAR MAINTENANCE:
- Dust mop or vacuum weekly.
- Buff as desired to maintain a good shine. (Except Hardwood Floor Refinisher)
- Re-wax every six months or as necessary.
