The mini wax that we bought, we got 2 gallons of it, and both of them do not stay mixed, even though they’ve been shaking and shaking and shaking, and stirred the dye separates from the solution. We took this product back to Lowe’s complaining about how the dye doesn’t stay immersed mixed in the solution and they accused us of adding water to it when we did nothing to it.

Stay away
This product was used with all recommended products to prevent streaks and for best coverage. It’ll dry before you can finish the whole room. Then when you try to wipe up the extra like instructed half will be tacky the other half will wipe up fine. Did a small hallway same problem. Just don’t buy minwax period

Reasons to not shop at Lowe's
There is nothing I want that I will not find elsewhere only shopping Lowe's as a last resort. Being verbally assault by a continuously barking dog, sealed for me.
