Very fast and perfect international shipping, products of extraordinary quality and unbeatable service.
Fabulous service with a hand-written note as part of the package, the product is marvellous and the leather I used it on feels completely renewed. I will definitely be buying from this lovely small business again as they clearly care about what they are selling and the people they sell to.
Purchased after watching in depth video of Gilboys renovation video of a g plan table. I have used Gilboys hot wax and beeswax polish to renovate my late parents 50+years old g plan dining table and chairs( heavily marked and scratched). Looks like new, thank you for both excellent quality products and comprehensive video on how to best use. Thank you.
Very pleased.
I purchased the starter kit which arrived quickly and was beautifully put together. I have just used the pure gold polish on a white stain (maybe water) which was very obvious on my light coloured burr elm coffee table. I spent the last few days working on it and although not perfect it is certainly not as obvious. I'm very pleased with the result. I just need to rejuvenate the rest of the table now.
Wow, what a difference from all the other polishes I have used. What I like is that the polish sets hard, almost like a varnish finish but with a very low build. The fact that you have gum in the mix makes all the difference. It is not greasy and polishes well.
I did have to 'learn' how to use it to get the best results, even after watching your helpful and informative videos.
I have used these on a few projects now, and this will be my 'go to' for almost all of my projects where French polish is not needed.
Great professional customer service, the kind you hope you get but rarely find. Product delivered swiftly, well packaged and great communication, keep up the high standards, well done .
Just to echo what others have said, this is the best polish I've used. Even applying it to sun damaged furniture, it was able to bring back considerable detail in the wood.
Fabulous key rings, took no time at all to arrive in Adelaide, Australia during the Christmas rush. Amazing. Thank you.
This was a Christmas present for my wife to revive some furniture she had recently acquired. She did a test on some other light oak tables and was so impressed by look (and smell) that she is now going to do a full restore of the furniture it was actually bought for!
Also, a big thank-you for the personal touches from Gilboy's - confirming that I wanted the non-tinted wax and for the packaging and message card, this certainly made what could have been described as a utilitarian gift something really special.
Having inherited my parents Ercol dining table, I decided it really needed some extra care to try to bring it back nearer to its original condition. Having searched online, I discovered Gilboys UTube video and found this inspirational. It gave me the confidence to have a go at the job myself. I ordered the hard wax oil and the polishing kit - which arrived within days. After sanding, sealing and polishing, I was very pleased with the transformation. Such a smooth finish, and an amazing enriched tone colour to the table top - and job done just in time for Christmas!
Thank you Gilboys!

Used on my brother's antique church kneeler (teak) and it accentuated the carving and curves wonderfully. Glorious soft sheen.
Pity it's not available on Amazon as the postage to Ireland is punitive!
I’d bought and used this polish before and it was good - but using it with 0000 steel wool makes a HUGE difference and having that included in the kit was good confirmation that this is the way to go,
The product is transformative in combination with the wire wool. Brilliant depth of shine/colour. Previously very average Georgian pieces now look great.
Thank you!
10/10 for the Gilboys experience.
From start to finish this company make shopping an enjoyable task - well constructed website, clearly written descriptions, informative pictures, good pricing and delivery costs. When the package arrived (swiftly) it was well wrapped, with a handwritten card, gift of sunflower seeds and a booklet about furniture care. Great service, thank you.
Works very well; lovely shine and brings out the wood grain. Smells good - like ‘proper’ wax too
For literally decades I have been trying different waxes for my hand carved table. I have bought many different waxes, claiming to be "the best for antiques". Sadly none have lived up to their promise. Until I found Gilboys. I got the set of 3 different waxes for myself, as I have a lot of antique and other wooden furniture. I found the instruction videos by Gilboys really helpful. the kit came with steel wool, polishing cloth, waxes and cubes for repair of scratches. One challenge for me is the deep carving in the wood of this table, and finding the information to cut off a paintbrush was ideal for getting the wax properly distributed. I did a small area at a time, and the results were so fantastic I was raving to my family about what an amazing wax this is. I got a kit for my sister for her tables too after seeing the results. The table has not looked this good since it was first carved by a family friend in the 1960's. I have recommended these waxes to my family and friends.
So impressed with this polishing kit, everything was so easy to use and the results are beautiful.
I have an old teak sideboard that needed some tlc, it was extremely dull and flat before. It now has the most stunning shine, the surface is reflective like glass, I can't stop looking at it. The polish has brought life back to the teak and it smells divine. Cant recommend enough, thank you!!
Great packaging - the handwritten note was appreciated. Felt very much like the supplier cared that we had a good experience using the polish. It worked really well and improved a table we had bought.
Brilliant natural product that has restored my G Plan coffee table like new.
Great product, but also must add Gilboys added extra to the service with old fashioned great customer care
