Wore me out! Two strippings, due to deep wax and dry air, it was 88+° in there today.
They are hiring, but it's hard to find people.
Three coats of wax now done! [Linked Image]

The factory guy said it looked outstanding! Before I stripped it the second time 🙂
I do believe I'm the best floor guy I know! Lol 😆🤣😳

I haven't done one for awhile , but I know that is back braking work . I'm a part time custodian at a school and I worked one summer doing that . Plus if you didn't watch it , you could break a leg . Sanding and varnishing the gym floor wasn't a picnic .

Better get some AC on that it will turn cloudy in the humidity before it cures. !!!!

No humidity, factory air is hot, the sections I stripped set up on the edges because it was so hot n dry, I had to restrip the floor to get it all. 88° in there
Saw the floor yesterday, looks the same

Yes one year the school system I worked for decided to cut back on energy cost. They turned ALL the air off in 14 schools. The poor janitors that stripped the floors and waxed them in 100 degree rooms were peod. They Ky humidity turned them all milky. They called the Johnson floor wax rep and he told them it can cause that. SO they strpped them again and rewaxed them . This time with air. PLUS the computer labs the tables bowed under the weight and had to be replaced also. Think the electric bills would have been cheaper than all the man hours and tables it took to straight that mess out.

Oh man that would stink, it's hard enough to do it one time!.
I've had it humid enough to make wax dry be slowly, never enough to do that, that's crazy
