    Thanks Dave,
    The only reason to consider the 6535 was for the shielded case to help prevent static build-up & the better handling of corners.

    But we have been so busy with some life altering...

    6060 vs 6000

    295198
    so what made you decide to go with the new water based 6060 instead of the 6000?

    Thanks Mike, that's a great tip!

    May sound silly - Is this the wax in the big yellow can? I've tried looking for it before for another tip but at our Home Depot doesn't say floor wax on the can.
