Great product and service. Exactly what I needed.

Absolutely lovely product! Plus de fast delivery makes it a delight to buy from Gylboys. Many thanks.

Excellent product which I enjoy using. Works well even for an amateur. Service second to none

Lovely product delivered quickly and with a kind "thank you" note

Excellent product, very easy to apply, goes a long way, gives a fantastic finish.

I was delighted with my polishing kit and really liked the helpful booklet. I was also watching the video's on YouTube which were helpful and interesting.

I loved it . I have been trying to find a polish this for ages. This actually works and brings up a good patina. I will check if my drill works so I can but you polisher and buffer. The fine steel works well

I bought this for a Dainese (Eight track 1972) aniline black and white leather motorcycle jacket which being somewhat porous would have been made darker using an oil based product.
Has revived a jacket that was quite dry and has improved look and feel of leather.
Thank you !

Perfect kit with everything needed.
I purchased a second hand G-Plan table and chairs which needed some attention.
Really easy to apply the beeswax and it really improved the colour and shine to the furniture. Some areas needed more attention (and stronger wire wool) but finishing with the kit enhanced the wood.
The colour was perfect (even though it looks super dark in the jar).
Other beeswax I've used leave a strong smell that lasts a few days, Gilboys didn't, in fact it had a really nice fragrance.
Highly recommend.

I have an old mahogany extending table in the style of Gillows and worth preserving
Unfortunately, it had got sadly and badly abused and covered with water marks and rings
I'd watched some Gilboys' furniture restoration videos on YouTube and thought I'd give it a go
I bought a jar o antique golden beeswax polish + some super fine 0000 grae steel wall and white spirit from a local hardware store

I rubbed back the existing finish with wire wool and spirit - but not too far, then wiped off as much of the dirt etc as poss, before waking with a wad of steel wool.

The table top required quite a lot more than I expected - but I followed the tutorial - was on, leave on before buffing to a lovely rich finish with cotton cloth

The overall effect is excellent - However, due to my lack of experience and the very hot weather, .y daughter rested the sleeves of a white cotton blouse on the table top and it transferred brown wax onto her sleeves - she wasn't happy.

What do I do to prevent this?

Hi Simon
The buffing brush is a brilliant tool, speeds things up and much better finish on more intricate pieces.
Also thanks for the seeds that came with my first order, they are just beginning to bloom at my allotment.

Using both the Hard Wax and Beeswax Wood Polish has given fabulous results. We repaired and stripped a tired, stained and damaged 1960s Ercol dining table and 4 chairs and gave them 3 coats of Hard Wax, followed by the Beeswax Polish,which has given a gentle lustre to the wood, enhancing the colour and the grain. It looks beautiful. Couldn't be happier.

Was recommended it and it’s brilliant

Very good quality and effective. I’ve really enjoyed using the brush, however I’m sure if there was a YouTube video on your channel I’d probably get more out of it.

Thank you Simon for all the products I have purchased from you. Both the Hard wax oil and the pure gold wax have done exactly what you predicted they would. They have made such a difference to all my beautiful oak in our home. Helped by the brush to get into all the nooks and crannies and take a little of the hard work out of buffing. Thank you.

Gilboys Antique Gold polish gave a lovely rich finish to my restored Singer sewing machine table, I am very pleased with the result and now looking for other pieces of furniture where I can use it.

Quality products and very pleased with the results.

We were shown your product by the owners of Chateau De La Lacelle. We stayed there as the first guests ever, and we fell in love with this product. So we asked them for the details and they raved about how good the product is. As we are still travelling overseas, we have yet to use it. However I know for sure it will be a fantastic product when we return very soon to Australia. Thanks for the product.

Great item, used for the first time yesterday and absolutely delighted with the results. Will be getting a lot more use over this weekend !!

Used this on a large oak shelf going in our kitchen. Easy to apply and looks great.

I used the leather balsam for the first time today and I am very impressed with the results. The leather seats on my dining room furniture looked faded and cracked before applying the balsam. The transformation was immediate; very happy with the product.
