No Petrochemical Solvent, No Silicone

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.

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
  1. For best results use the included ultra-soft 0000-grade oil-free wire wool to apply the polish
  2. 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
  3. Allow the pure pine turpentine to completely evaporate and the wax to harden (15-20 minutes in temperate climates)
  4. 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.

*Coverage may vary depending on the condition of the finish.

**Not suitable for use on floors - the wax content is so high that the slip resistance would not be sufficient.

Highly praised beeswax furniture polishing kit that restores antique and wood furniture to a deep shine. Customers said it "oozes quality" and produces results comparable to National Trust properties. Easy to apply with minimal buffing required. Works on various woods including oak, pine, and instruments. Some note buffing delicate items takes time. Beautiful packaging with personal touches.

  • Lovely quality polish, comes to a deep shine.
  • The finish was so good we were laughing because we didn't think we could get furniture to look so good.
  • Products that ooze quality and are a pleasure to use.

Superb Products.

My wife deals in Antique furniture and I use your products to enhance their appearance if they are dull or discoloured and carry out repairs to minor scratches and imperfections with your superb waxes.

I also find Simon’s videos on furniture restoration extremely useful as they are a constant source of instruction and inspiration on how to revive furniture.

Products that ooze quality and are a pleasure to use.

I've just finished restoring our much loved kitchen table which has been through 35years of family life with us. I forgot to take a 'before' photo but it was in a pretty pitiful state after many years of service and abuse. I watched Simon's YouTube video on how to restore a pine table and followed it to the letter using Gilboy's hard wax oil and polishing kit. It went really well and was a very pleasurable and rewarding project. I cannot recommend Gilboy's products enough. They just ooze quality and work like a dream. Both the hard wax oil and the polishing waxes go on really easily , smell wonderful and do a brilliant job. I used the soft wire wool and polishing cloths that came with the kit and they were just the ticket. I also used the little scratch repair cube which was very useful and effective and easy to use. Even though I gave it several layers of polish there is still plenty left in the jar to use on other furniture which makes it really good value for such a quality product. Honestly I run out of superlatives but I'd come back to Gilboy's every time now without hesitation.

Life changing!

We love antique furniture and have recently bought a hall cupboard from the 18th century. It was very dirty and unloved.
I had used commercially available waxes and polishes before and wanted to get something special for this piece. Now I realise I have been wasting my time all of my life using the big-brand off the shelf products because the finish that the Gilboys Antique polish gave to the cupboard was a shock.
We were literally speechless. The finish was so good we were laughing because we didn't think we could get a piece of furniture to look so good in our home.
We are frequent visitors to National Trust properties and you see the furniture inside the homes and think "if only I could have something like that" and this is the kind of result you get with this product, it gives you a look and a finish to your furniture you could only dream about having.
It is wonderful to learn about the Gilboys company too, the ingredients within the products are better than most alternative furniture polish brands, the level of detail and the additional "touches" make the brand something I am proud to have found and support.
My pictures show the before of a hall cupboard, a shot showing one panel complete and then the final result.

Gilboy helped kickstart a new hobby

I was impressed with the results. Table looks and feels smooth and silky to the touch. It has really come back to life! Great directions from the web video helped make the experience of renovating the table a lot of fun since it explained the steps so well. The only part I errored in was that I didn’t get the coarse wool, only the fine wool and therefore only striped the varnish with a paint spatula. But even then, the end results were amazing.

Amazing kit!

I bought a solid oak bookcase, probably early 20thC, at auction. It needed sorting out. I followed your videos on cleaning, it was filthy, then polished with the pure. The whole kit was amazing and the fine wire wool a revelation! I took the processs slowly as there were 4 shelves 4.5ft long as well as the body and the polishing took a while but it was worth it as it now looks brilliant. What I really liked was the amazing smell of the polish! Thank you so much. My next task is using the antique on some inherited mid century Guy Rogers chairs that need a boost. Your videos and polish kits are brilliant thank you.

Polishing Down Under

This is a note of thanks.

The items only took about a week to arrive in Australia, which was lightening quick, and were well packaged.

I have already used the pure on my antique Baltic pine chest of drawers and am very pleased with the ease of use and the result.

Thank you for the great service and excellent product.
