hubby says--the swiffer spray stuff is an alcohol base that reacted with the wax (partical dissolve) only way to bring back to normal is to buff it back out---you are right you need to buff and wax! depending on number of layers of wax you may need to remove some wax and the best thing to use for that is naphtha. good luck!
