Is it possible to make or use plastic wrappers as additives (or, the main ingredient) in making floor wax?

Question

help!

Answer 1

Your talking about making something chemically that has no user tryouts or, contents checks. What I mean is mixing one additive with another, and getting a product that's harmful to the public.
This is something that has to be carefully controlled under laboratory conditions for a period of time to assure good quality and withholding stability. If this is something your going to experiment on your own with, and try that would be up to you, also voiding any and all insurance contracts on yourself and your buildings. Do you see what you've got yourself into? and, we haven't really got started. With legalities and liabilities etc. Contracts, fees, etc. This is why a lot of good things end up under the table or in the waste basket.

Answer 2

I wouldn't think so because floor wax has no plastic in it at all. Plastic would not be soluble at all; you could melt it to become a liquid, but once it cooled it would become a solid again. Floor wax is meant to be a protective coating for your floor, yet you can remove it so that you can put a fresh coating of wax down. I don't believe that would be possible for plastic to have that quality, even if mixed with other ingredients.

Answer 3

My best advice on this matter is; DON'T TRY IT! Floor wax has no plastic in it. You can get a gallon of real floor sealer or floor finish for less than $20 @ Wal-Mart. If you need help with that, post another question on the subject, and we'll get you advice on how to strip, apply, or buff.

Answer 4

I think not. You could start a fire when your trying to melt the plastic,plus floor wax does't have plastic it it . Sounds like a messy waste of time to me.

Answer 5

Absolutely not. Those plastics are linked (polymerized) and they aren't going back.
