[/caption]Hardwood floors should be polished monthly with a special wax. Daily, they need to be wiped down with a dry cloth.

To polish the hardwood floor, start by mixing a pre-prepared wax (a blend of beeswax and potash) in cold water, adding paint to the solution based on your desired color. This mixture is then evenly applied to the floor with a brush, while continuously rubbing it in. After that, allow the floor to dry for 1-2 hours. Once dry, begin buffing the floor first with a brush and then with a cloth until it shines. Be careful, as excess wax in the mixture can lead to a dull finish.
