A friend of mine was having the same problem. I told her to try using a mix of 50/50 vinegar and water (what I use solely to clean my own hardwoods) over the course of about a month and a half and her using it to clean them about once a week it took off all of the build up and left her floors looking beautiful again!

Vinegar would be my choice, but I've read mineral spirits can be used too.
Hi Barbara: You can use a gallon of warm water mixed with 2 cups of white vinegar. Pour onto the stain and mix the solution around until it's dissolved and then scrub with a brush or cloth until the wax is removed. Then, rinse with cold water to remove any excess vinegar.
