About this deal

While you can use wax on bare wood or wood that has only a thin penetrating finish, you must apply several coats before you begin to get a modest sheen. At the other extreme, on a very high-gloss finish such as rubbed out lacquer or a French polish, wax is superfluous and can actually detract from the finish. I decided to use cherry for the test boards and to finish them with a washcoat of shellac and three coats of a wiped-on poly. This resulted in a moderate sheen, but with the grain structure still easily visible. Apply, then buff. Schofield applied each wax using the outside of a fairly open-weave cotton cloth, monitored how long it took to dry, and then buffed the surface with some soft cotton flannel from an old pair of pajamas. Compatibility: Compatible with all types of timber finishes. For best results and to prevent a blotchy appearance timber should always be previously sealed with a varnish, oil or sanding sealer. Shelf-life/Storage: Many years in normal conditions if stored in original, tightly closed container. Protect from frost. Do not store below 5°C. This product was so hard in the can that it was quite difficult to get any on the cloth, but once on the wood it spread easily to an even coat. It took longer to dry than most of the other waxes and when buffed produced only a low sheen.

Note: Always test on an unseen area before use. Before using Antiquax LeatherRe-Colouring Balm, clean the leatherusing a good quality Leather Cleaner. Not linked to the office-supply store, this wax has been made in New Hampshire since 1897. Whereas most waxes make a virtue of containing beeswax, this one specifically excludes it (along with silicones). Like the S.C. Johnson wax, it was easy to apply and manipulate with a wet feel, but it was harder to buff away all the surplus, with some smearing left on the mirror despite frequent cloth changes. It produced a slightly lower-than-average shine.

How wrong I was. After testing 21 brands of wax, I found that while the majority produce a good result, the effort required varies enormously. You can get excellent waxes for a modest cost, but there are a few that I wouldn’t use again at any price. Testing the waxes Application: Shake thoroughly before use. Spray apply sparingly and work into the surface with the grain using a soft lint free cloth. Work well into the grain and allow to dry to a light haze. Remove by polishing in a circular motion using a clean dry cloth.
