Care of varnished floors and birch woodwork values
Home care guidance for varnished floors and birch woodwork recommends waxing to protect the finish, using paste floor wax in a thin even coat and polishing after about 30 minutes. Clean with a dry broom or cloth or a treated mop, rewax only in traffic lanes, and polish weekly. For soiled spots use a liquid wax cleaner. For tough cases, non slip floor waxes exist for convalescent homes.
