Best Answer

To remove candle wax from a hardwood floor use an ice cube to harden the wax and then gently scrap off the wax with a putty knife. To remove the wax finish on a hardwood floor use mineral spirits on the floor. Use a cloth and apply the mineral spirits in a circular motion until all the wax has been removed.

How to Remove old wax off hardwood floors?

If it really is wax, you will not remove it as it will have slowly been absorbed deep into the wood. The deeper you get into the wood, the less there will be but you would need to remove a lot of wood to get the floor free of wax. The easiet way to refresh the surface of any wooden floor is to use a floor sander - hire one from a tool-hire shop.
