Guest guest Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 Hm, on furniture I use beeswax and orange oil, applied very lightly and thinly. I suppose it would work on wood floors as well.

Guest guest Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 Why buy no beeswax? After all, we use it in our salves and balms, on our skin and lips. So why not wood?

Guest guest Posted August 27, 2005 Report Share Posted August 27, 2005 To my knowledge, one really shouldn't use wax at all -- just to wash them with vinegar water -- however, to spice them up a bit, this sounds like a good recipe. ----- From: Anne Bird health Sent: Thursday, August 25, 2005 6:12 AM Subject: Floor wax Beeswax sounds good but expensive...but how safe is turpentine and linseed oil?
