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.

Why should you avoid using so much wax on flooring?

Too much wax can make the floor feel rather sticky.


Cleaning Your Laminate Floors?

Your laminate flooring makes a beautiful addition to your home and you need to maintain it in order to protect your investment. Clean your laminate flooring by using a dry mop, broom or vacuum cleaner to remove all the heavy dirt, dust and hair. Then use a steam mop or slightly damp cloth to clean and sanitize your floor and make it shine. Avoid using a traditional mop because this will leave too much water and cause your floor to swell and buckle. Avoid using any chemicals on your floor as this will destroy the floor's protective finish.

What is better hard wood or laminate flooring?

This depends on which objectives are most important to you. Generally, more people prefer hardwood flooring since it's a natural produce and improves your home's value. If it's solid hardwood, it will last much longer and can be refinished multiple times. On other hand, laminate flooring is more scratch resistant and costs less.


When cleaning an instrument what kind of water should be used hot cold dirty or none?

Well dirty water is definitely not the way to go. It depends on what sort of instrument you are working with. If it's a piano, guitar, or any stringed or percussion instrument, use a dry chamois. I'm not sure about wind instruments, but I'd probably avoid using much water if any.
