Default Beeswax

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrgggggggghhhhhhhhh

We are in the middle of refurbishing the downstairs.

The lounge has had its laminate that was supplied with the housebuilder, ripped up & replaced with 22mm Gunstock Oak, which is stunning to say the least & well worth the pennies. New oak skirtings & all painted & new technics surround sound system

Kitchen is being done at the moment, everything ripped out & replaced with excellent quality units, fixtures & fittings. Still getting tiled at the moment, both walls & floor, along with conservatory floor to match.

Now after that long winded explanation, my problem is that the dust is getting trailed through to the lounge & no matter how we clean it, it still settles.

To stop this in the future, will beeswax applied to the lounge floor help ??

I dont want a gloss finish, i really like what the floor looks like at the moment, what will applying this wax achieve ???

Sorry if its all a bit a bit of a mish mash

Your answers would be apprieciated

wax will trap dust, but will eventaully build up into a shine..

talk to some carpenters, or some professional floor installers
