Periodic Hardwood Floor Care and Maintenance
 Buffing your hardwood floor between waxings will restore the original sheen. Large,
heavyweight buffing machines deliver a much higher sheen to a wax finish than smaller,
lightweight machines. Use a fiber bristle brush attachment only.
 You may want to wax the floor slightly more often in drier climates, during the winter, and in
heavy traffic areas.
