[Histonet] RE: wax on the floors

[Blazek, Linda]

I'm still looking for Bruce the stripper! 
We use to use a paraffin floor scraper kind of like a scraper on the end of a broom stick but somehow it disappeared.  We now use a paraffin scrapper that is much easier on the floor.  The one designed for scrapping the floor had a blade that had a tendency to gouge the floor.

Ok, I could not resist.  Let's see, I have used:
Paint scraper
Slide (when I first started)
Spackle spatula taped to a broomstick (when I worked at small, poor place) Ice thingy (removes the ice from car windshield)  hey I live in Houston, we don't have ice Floor scraper from a carpet/vinyl floor company (when I worked in a fancy lab) 

Also, don't let housekeeping wax the floors.

Happy Hump Day!

What is everyone doing to clean floors of paraffin?? Does anyone have any great secrets to how the floors are cleaned of the debris?

Thanks for any input!
