I have not tried on my wood floors. I have used it on my tiled kitchen floors. We bought our home 3 years ago and after years of wax build up the floor were yellow. This is the only product that has worked. It works almost on contact. I used it right out of the container, pour onto the wax build up area, let it set for a few min. and I actually scrubbed the first time on my hands and knees. My floor came out beautifully. Restored to original luster. I love this stuff. I do plan to do the wood floors this spring. I hope this helps!

I did not use this product on a wood floor. I used it on a tile floor. The product works best when mixed 1:1 with hot water then soaked into a paper towel and allowed to stay soaking on the wax for about five minutes. Use rubber gloves. Sponge or mop up the solution and then use a plastic scraper to remove the softened wax. On a wood floor you will need to be careful not to scratch the wood or over soak the floor. Good luck.

I have wood floors also, plus an area rug under my dining room table which is over hardwood flooring. I am going to put a sheet of heavy plastic underneath until it is dryed completely.

I did not need to strip my entire floor. Where I did need to eliminate the build up of wax, I used mineral spirits and steel wool. Once I applied the wax, I did need to buff the floor to bring out the shine.

First i mopped the floor with soap and water to make it clean,then i let it dry ,get a new rug put some wax on it apply the wax parallel with the floor. To make the work easier I divide the floor area into 2 parts.Removed the mop soak with soap and water for an hour then wash . The floor looks good and it is non skid.

you'll want to use the plastic hand/foot bags....make less mess and easily pulls wax off by grabbing plastic above wax and pulling down, removing the wax. The terry-cloth hand/foot mits are a nice option...not necessary. Love, love, love it! you will, too!

If it's a light wood (maple or light oak) and really dirty I'd use the cleaner and wax. But if it's not dirty I'd just the sealer. Dark wood I'd go with the seal finish.

I used Goo Gone but watch how hard you rub. If you have wood veneer finish, it may take it off too.

I bought a house that had hard woods and wasn't sure what to use. After googling I tried Bona. It was good for a while but I noticed that they floors were becoming cloudy. I purchased a steam They are still cloudy and now streaked! After surfing the web I decided to try Windex. I have been wiping for hours but it works!!! I am using a brand new micro cloth that I am positive has never been exposed to fabric softener and good ole elbow grease. The Windex has removed the cloudy residue and does not harm my high gloss floor. I am returning the steam mop and the new bottle on Bona that I bought yesterday and buying a Windex refill!

While wearing gloves use an old spoon or stick to take out a small amount of the wax. With whatever your using it to apply (I use cheese cloth)it will be come smooth and cream as you rub it into your furniture. I actually let it sit for a bit, then rub with the grain until actual results are obtained.I have a special brush, a semi-firm round bristle brush to get into all the nooks and spaces.In warmer weather the paste is softer, but it does warm with the warmth of your hand. Please DO NOT try and heat it any other way, as it is flammable.

There is no wax in this product. I use it on my laminate floors and it works great. You don't have to rinse it off, either. Do not use it on floors that already have wax on them. It's a great product.

I use this on all of my floors. My no wax kitchen floor and my hardwood hall floor. It gives it a shine and doesn't build up like other floor cleaners. I haven't had a problem.

I just made the mistake of picking up "polish" rather than "cleaner". My floor is ruined. Fortunately, I had only done a section of floor. I am reading now what to do about it. Can't believe how many "mad" people there are who already ruined their floors---never again. Once they are fixed- think I will try the ammonia/water mix. Wish me luck-- Goodbye Bona!!!!!

Depends on how hard you want to work. A Paste Wax is great when you are really feeling ambitious. Liquid Wood Floor Polish is good for a quick fix. I Love My Koblenz!

I would try to remove most of it by scraping dry glue with appropriate tool that won't scratch floor tile. Further, I'd try to focus on any in the grout lines, since it might be harder for an adhesive remover to work on this spot. I think that if you have a large area to work that it would be better to ask a flooring specialist about what particular adhesive remover product is needed. I'm thinking there must be something that would be easier work. So, no, I don't think the GOO GONE would attack flooring glues that I've worked with.

There's a special solution just for wood floors. The bottle is brownish in color. I think it's a new product. I tried it, and it's better than using the regular cleaner on it.
