Why should you avoid from using too much wax on flooring?

You shouldn't use wax unless the floor was finished with wax. More than likely, the floor has oil or water based polyurethane on it. Why you shouldn't use wax on any polyurethane finish, it prevents the finish from adhering if you ever have the floor re-coated with poly. You will have to spend around two dollars a foot to sand them rather than .50 or .75 cents a foot to re-coat the floor. Prices depend on where you live.
