This is a slate floor in a commercial building. Like many commercial buildings trying to stretch their budget, they opted to repeatedly apply coats of finish in an attempt to improve the appearance; however, this is a perfect example of what not to do. Sooner or later the multiple coats of finish have to be stripped off and it becomes very expensive, as in this case. It is also very harmful to the floor to use extreme amounts of stripper, which is needed to get down to the natural stone surface. In addition, the longer the wax stays on the surface, the more likely moisture will become trapped resulting in more damage.
