Best Answer

if you want to remove the finish from a hardwood floor, sanders fpr this purpose can be rented, normally a belt type sander. Only a skilled person should do this, it is very easy to ruin the floor by oversanding causing the grooved side of the tougne and groove joint on the edge of the stips to split, also waves and gouges are another danger.

If it really is wax, you will not remove it as it will have slowly been absorbed deep into the wood.
