I just built a house and it has wood floors (standard wood floors) How am I supposed to know if they are waxed so i can use this? I didn't wax them.

i have original hardwood floors in my home and i sanded and put polyurethane on them. i use this every week for general cleaning. nothing else but this. i also use the regular swifter cleaner, you don't have to buy the one just for wood.. they all work the same. i love it! quick and easy!

I always make the assumption with wood floors that they have polyurethane for sealing and any waxing that needs to be done - I did myself. The Swiffer product really is more for general maintenance then it is for FULL cleaning of the wood floors. When I wanted my floors done fully I would buy the BRUCE HARDWOOD floor product available for a Home Depot or Lowe's. Then, in between cleanings and on a regular basis, I would use the Swiffer WetJet Wood Product for dust and general cleaning.

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 don't wax floors, but I would think a sponge mop would be best for that process.

If the wood is clean, you're fine straight out of the can. If the finish looks murky, or the old wax looks dirty, you may want to remove it, first. H.F. Staples Wood Cleaner is great for this. You'll be amazed at how much grime old wax can hold. Just read and follow all directions. TreWax will give you a really nice, durable shine. It's also wonderful for floors. We've used it for years, and been really satisfied.

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.

Don't know, threw it out. You can read the label at the store. My advice if you have real hardwood floors, don't use it.

I didn't use it to remove old wax because I didn't want to strip everything off these 140 yr old pine floors. Lundmark wax floor cleaner has turpentine mixed with wax so it cleans the prior wax rather than remove it. I think you would have to use pure turpentine (very smelly but very effective) or mineral spirits (oderless but less effective) if you really want to strip the old wax off. This product is very good at cleaning and you just might find that you don't have to strip off that old wax....just give it a good cleaning.

It's a polish. Not a wax. Not a substitute for soap. You have to remove dirt and grime before or you could cause minor scratches. It wouldn't be the Polish fault though.

I have sealed hardwood floors and it did a great job and did not damage them at all and I had to let the steam sit a bit as I was cleaning dried cat vomit (he did it in the night and we did not find it right away). I cleaned them with the steam mop and then gave them a quick polish with Bona and a microfiber mop they looked just like new!

I would say no, although it works well on no wax wood floors. May I suggest you ask "Hope Floor Revive" directly. I believe they have a website?

Michelle, that may not be wax, they tend to season cast iron so you don't have to. If you still feel it's wax, hot soapy water should remove that. Lynn

I don't know. I used it on my quarry tile cellar floor and am very happy with it. After using the wax, I used another liquid wax I bought at the local supermarket to give it a higher gloss. I must say that we had our wood floors sanded and polyurethaned and were very happy with that.

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 never knew exactly what wood was used in the floors but felt safe in using Bona. The following link I picked up from the bamboo flooring site.http://www.calibamboo.com/cleaning-bamboo-flooring.htmlI hope this is great help for you. Happy polishing!!!

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 have dark and glossy wooden flooring (Santos Mahogany) in my house. I regularly use Roomba to vacuum them, and I do not get any scratches on my floor.

we have old school parkay wood floors and very heavy pot/plants and they ahve not left a mark on them, but I think it might depend on the type of wood you have. There are small rubber 'feet' at the ends of each leg, that I think helps as well.
