I am looking for a way to remove floor wax in my kitchen. I can't seem to find floor wax remover in the stores. Does anyone have a quick and easy way?

My grandmother's housekeeper used LA's Awesome (dollar a bottle, the yellow stuff) and just sprayed it on straight, no diluting. She waited about 15 minutes and mopped it up. In a few places she has to scrape a little with a plastic spatula like what you smear grout with. She did the whole kitchen and laundry rooms in less than three hours total.

The floors had not been de-waxed in over 20 years, by the way.

Good luck!

Fuller Brush and Amway both carry Floor Wax removers. Search the internet for dealers in your area.

I use ammonia and a sponge and good old fashioned elbow grease. It works.

I suggest to call all the Hardware stores; Lowe's & Home Depot. They should have it, good luck.
