floor waxer

Ground shine machine

A floor waxer is a machine that applies and buffs wax onto hard floors, or the person operating such a machine.

The device typically has rotating pads or brushes that spread wax evenly and polish the surface to a shine: The janitor ran the floor waxer down the hallway after hours.
