floors are SO easily cared for that
few people realize what a thor
Ough Scrubbing can do for their
beauty.
Layers of wax, one over another,
piled on the floor become filled
with dirt and grit after months
of hard usage. This dulls the whole
surface. 1t also clouds the floor
color.
Remove the old wax with tur-
pentine or gasoline-base solution.
Then, scrub the cement with a
soda-Soap mixture. This is made by
adding one-half cup of neutral
soap and two tablespoonSful of
washing soda in a bucket of warm
water. The old wax is cut by the
soda-soap solution.
After the floors are cleaned,
start from the beginning and re-
store the surface with two coats
of standard floor wax. Use only
