White spots on the concrete wax surface

  •       If your surface is very uneven and has low spots, the wax can tend to pool when applied too heavy. Where it pools in a low spot, it can become milky due to being too thick. The tell-tale is the white areas will look like round(ish) spots
  •     If there was remaining moisture on the surface or just inside the pores that might have trapped under the wax application. Moisture needs to dry out completely or as it evaporates it will cloud under the coat(s) of wax, leading to a hazy or milky appearance.
  •        If the wax was applied to a concrete surface below 60° F. A cold floor will cause wax to remain as white/milky as it was when first applied. The colder the surface the whiter it will look. Wax should be applied to a surface temp of 60 degrees or higher and, for best results, the wax should temper to within 5-7 degrees of floor temp.

Can white spots be removed from dry concrete floor wax?

Unfortunately, here is nothing that can be put on wax to cause it to clear. You can attempt clearing with a highspeed buffer. However, you will most likely need to strip the wax in the bad areas and reapply. As an attempt to avoid a larger project, if you are in cold weather, you might consider setting a space heater around the milky areas for a few hours and see if it has a clearing effect.
