With a pH of 11.2 it splits the long-chain polymers in carnauba, acrylic, and paraffin waxes, then emulsifies the residue for easy rinsing. A 10-20 minute dwell breaks layers up to 2 mm thick; 1 L covers 3-10 m² depending on wax thickness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhen to Use\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCotto floor before re-waxing - apply undiluted, 100 ml\/m² \u003ca href=\"\/en-hr\/pages\/problem-wax-residue\"\u003ewax-residue\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTerracotta hallway prior to \u003ca href=\"\/en-hr\/pages\/problem-stain-protection\"\u003estain-protection\u003c\/a\u003e - undiluted, 120 ml\/m²\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePolished marble bathroom with polish rings - undiluted, 110 ml\/m²\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRough granite patio with adhesive smears - undiluted, 180 ml\/m²\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCeramic showroom tiles with slip polish build-up - undiluted, 90 ml\/m²\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to Apply\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrush or vacuum loose grit, then flood the surface with WAX-OFF undiluted (150 ml\/m²).\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpread evenly with a mop or white pad; allow 10-20 minutes without drying.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScrub manually or with a machine at 150 rpm using a green pad.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVacuum slurry, rinse twice with clean water, and towel dry.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCoverage: 3-10 m²\/L.
