Floor Wax ?

Spent today sanding the floor of the central high-traffic area of the house.

I can't apply polyurethane, because it will never be free of traffic long enough to dry.

My question is, what's a finish that will protect the wood, be fast drying, and won't matter if it gets "spread around" a bit from foot traffic.

I was thinking of wax. Can you get special waxes for floors?

Ot does anyone have any other ideas?

If wax: what's a good way of applying it to a floor?

I can't recommend highly enough a finish we had on our floors called BonaTech Mega (do a web search for info and suppliers). It's a one-pack, water based finish, no smell, dries in 2-3 hours, as or more durable than 2 pack poly... it's just fantastic stuff. Even when it does get scratched you can sand a patch lightly and touch it up, unlike 2 pack.

I have no affiliation, just a very happy user.

Wax - wood floors - high traffic. Zenwood, the only thing that comes to mind is sock sliding!!!! :o Sorry, I've always wanted to try it, but not enough wood floors at my place yet.

cheers

Thanks custos. Done a search: looks like great stuff. Even found an SA supplier.

All kudos to custos:): Bona Mega is a superb product. Goes on really easily (with a roller), dries quickly, and forms a nice hard surface. Put primer and first coat on yesterday, and final coat today, and here's the result (ignore my woeful floor sanding results).

Heaps better than the old carpet that was becoming rotten and threadbare, and the old floor complete with white paint spots and paint-tin rings.
