Floor Wax That Is Not Water Soluble

"I'm looking for a floor wax for wood floors that is not water-soluble. Each time we have a spill under our dining room table, I have to rewax the whole area. I'm an American living in Zambia right now and can only find COBRA floor polish here (think it's also made by SC Johnson?), but might ask our family to send us a better product in a care package! :) – Mom of toddlers"

Hey there Mom with toddlers – thanks for the question! If you were living in the States we’d recommend Johnson’s One Step – which protects and enriches the beauty of well-sealed wood and cork floors. It’s self-polishing so it dries to a shine without buffing and contains acrylic so it’s soluble with mineral spirits.  

Our Mail Order system does not ship to addresses outside of the U.S. but you may want to put your family in touch with our Consumer Relationship Center at 1-800-558-5252. They may also encourage you to try Johnson’s Paste Wax, which is made of a blend of waxes, including Carnauba and is dust and water resistant.  

As for products that may help you and that are available in Zambia, we encourage you send an email to pmaseko@scj.com, a Consumer Liaison Officer at your local SC Johnson. We are happy to help you find a solution!
