"I’m not just saying it, but your waxes are superb" - Drew Pritchard (Salvage Hunters)

A clear beeswax polish, ideal for the restoration and protection of any type of wood or furniture finish. The crowning glory of any furniture restoration project is the application of beeswax polish to act as a long-lasting but easily renewable sacrificial layer to protect the wood finish.

INGREDIENTS

Natural waxes:

Triple-filtered beeswax, humanely harvested from local hives
Carnauba, Myrica, Japan and Berry waxes

Pure Pine Gum Spirits of Turpentine

No Petrochemical Solvent, No Silicone

IMPROVED UV PROTECTION

Our commitment to preserving the natural beauty of your wooden furniture has led us to improve our beeswax polish formula by incorporating a UV absorber. This addition has been scientifically proven to significantly lessen the harmful effects of UV radiation from direct sunlight on wooden surfaces.

By integrating a UV absorber into our trusted beeswax polish formula, we provide additional protection that absorbs even more of the harmful UV rays before they can damage the wood or its finish. This advanced protection is especially crucial for pieces exposed to direct sunlight, helping to greatly reduce discolouration and extend the life of your furniture.

While it does not block all UV rays entirely, it acts as a crucial additional barrier, extending the life of your furniture and keeping its colour and finish vibrant.

ECO RESPONSIBILITY

Environmental preservation is very important to us and we make every effort to ensure our products have a minimal impact on the environment:

We are not driven by a corporate cost-reduction ethos. We select our components based on quality and sustainability rather than the cheapest alternatives
No petrochemical solvents, we use only pure pine gum spirits of turpentine
100% Plastic-free recyclable packaging
Recycled cardboard and paper from FSC-approved mixed sources
Packing tape that is paper & cotton based with a water-based gum adhesive which can be recycled along with the cardboard boxes
No polypropylene-based tape. We use biodegradable raffia twine.
Our workshop roof is completely covered in solar panels and generates far more electricity than we consume

HOW TO USE

For best results use the included ultra-soft 0000-grade oil-free wire wool to apply the polish
With gentle pressure spread the polish evenly over the surface in the direction of the grain, being careful not to over apply and avoid any upholstered areas. Once applied the surface area should look matt in appearance
Allow the pure pine turpentine to completely evaporate and the wax to harden (15-20 minutes in temperate climates)
Use the included open-weave pure cotton buffing cloth to buff the wax with ease and without leaving streaks. An open-weave cloth reduces the heat from friction that would melt the top layer of wax and cause smearing.

Weekly furniture maintenance of removing dust can be done by simply using a slightly damp cloth and drying if needed with a clean dry cloth - beeswax polish will protect the surface for a very long time.

If you have a larger surface like the side of a chest of drawers or the top of a dining table apply the beeswax more evenly by dabbing the surface all over with small amounts of polish, then wipe in the direction of the grain to spread the wax evenly.

SECRET TRADE TIP:

For carved relief areas such as an antique coffer, you can also apply beeswax furniture polish with a cheap 1 inch trimmed paint brush. It makes applying the beeswax much easier and allows the polish to get right into those dusty and hard to reach areas. Buff it when completely dry with a soft shoe brush and buffing cloth.

Amazing products and videos

Thank you for all you help and advice though your videos and emails it really inspires to get started! The products are so easy to use and give a fantastic finish.
My wife decided to buy a second hand Ercol dining table and chairs that was in need of renovation and so far have finished one chair. Really looking forward to seeing the complete set finished . Photo shows before (carver) and after (chair)

Natural,not glossy Soft andv smoth finish

Gives wood a natural, smooth feel. Soft shine and silky touch - I love it.

Good as gold

I received the oil and beeswax exactly when they were expected. They are brilliant products and so easy to use. I had stripped back a 1980s pine chest of drawers that had seen better days, now it is revitalised and glowing. I can't wait to start on the next piece.

I have tried many different Beeswax products to-date, none of which gave a pleasing result. Gilboy's Pure Gold has given my dining table a wonderful shine and brings it to life. Table has been cleaned of oil and sanded to 320 grit. Then 2 coats of boiled linseed oil with dark oak stain. I have applied two coats of Gilboy's and am amazed by the results. Simon's videos were immensely helpful. Thanks.

Polish for Robert Thompson furniture.

Gilboy's Pure Gold polish is much harder than the bees wax polish I have been using for years, that was originally purchased from Robert Thompsons. The Pure Gold polish can be applied with little effort and covers the wood well and to my surprise will produce a shine with much less elbow grease than the polish I used to use. I am very pleased with the Pure Gold polish and now I have tried it out, once the jar is used up I will consider moving to the 1Kg tins in the future. Well done Mr. Gilboy for developing and supplying the perfect replacement to my old polish. Thank you.

Single Application Restoration - 17th Century Oak Linen Press

I am very pleased with my purchase of your beeswax polish. I have attached a photo of a 17th Century linen chest, after a single application of the polish which has really enhanced the lustre of the wood. Unfortunately, I did not take a 'before' photo but it was looking quite dull in comparison.. I have also used the polish on a light oak dining table and chairs with similar results.

Thank you for such an excellent product!
Best wishes
Paul

Terrific.

The whole process was simple and clear. The product arrived when expected, and has proven to be perfect for the job. No pictures year as the 3rd application and re-assembly will take some time. Highly recommended.

Excellent product

Our painted front and back doors had become dull and rain stained so we have polished both doors with this beeswax polish with uv filters. So far they look great and we will wait to see if the uv filters are effective.
