Most people would answer clean, and quite correctly. Waxes tend to scuff, buff and trap dirt. That might be okay when you have made the choice to use them, but when they are passed off as a cleaner, and they seek to equate gloss with clean. There is a problem. Even worse, when you realize that in order to recreate that gloss you need to use the product again. In fact, much more frequently than if the floor was wax-free.
So other than creating a need to keep using the product, why do they include waxes? Waxes were included to fill in micro-scratches in the protective urethane coating on today’s wood and laminate wood floors. Only problem is that wax is not smart, it goes everywhere, in the scratch and on top of the rest of the floor. Eventually it creates its own haze. Now what do you do? It won’t clean off with a standard cleaner. Now you need a professional to carefully strip off the wax without damaging the wood’s protective coating.
