The open weave of this 100% cotton cloth ensures that too much heat does not build up through the friction of polishing. Too much friction and therefore heat will melt the top few molecules of wax and create smearing. Our buffing cloth has been used for polishing by the restorers in our workshop for the past twenty years. 

  • 100% Pure Cotton
  • Open Weave
  • 2x 60cm lengths 

The open weave of our cloth makes life a lot easier when it comes to buffing the wax and achieving an even finish using considerably less elbow power than conventional towelling would require. 

EVERY order that leaves the Gilboy's workshop has a complimentary packet of sunflower seeds. We hope you will plant and grow them to provide a rich source of nectar by way of a 'Thank You' to the bees who make the beeswax in our polishes.

  • Entirely different results compared to ordinary duster type cloths. Literally brilliant.

Buffing Cloth

The package was delivered in a timely manner. The box and its contents were excellently presented. Nice touch to include some instruction and advice, with a thoughtful gifts of seeds. The buffing cloth was very good and worked well to give a pleasing finish. However, in this hot weather my wax is slow to harden.

Open weave polishing cloth

I used this for the final treatment (buffing) of a piece made in Iroko and Ash, and which had had 3-4 coats of Danish Oil. It was excellent.

Even more Beautiful

A Facebook Marketplace find for $20 was treated with Gilboy’s Antique Gold beeswax furniture polish. The product was easy to apply, and buffed out wonderfully with their open-weave polishing cloth. I also received a hand written thank you note, along with some sweet pea seeds. A great experience all around

Couldn't be happier

High quality product from the YouTube how to right through to my finished project. Ordered and delivered very quick with a lovely note and my order (thank you) and then the bees wax, OMG, such a nice product to use. The cloths were amazing allowed for the easiest application of the wax and buffing after. Great job, I'll be telling everyone who does something similar to purchase AND I'll be using again. Thanks so much Gillboy's.

The wax arrived promptly and beautifully packed - so many nice touches especially the seeds! I’ve used it along with your very helpful videos to transform a tired old table and am thrilled with the result. Many thanks and have a safe Christmas.

Sorry but this cloth is just a cotton muslin cloth that I can buy in a full roll for the price you charged me for 2 60cm cloths.
I thought this was going to be a special polish cloth not 2 pieces cut from a roll I could have bought for a similar price with small dust like pieces falling off everywhere.
Very disappointed.

House move damage!

I have not used the product yet as work is still being done on property. I like to use natural products & prefer not to over restore, The furniture is not new & like it to look used & loved. I am sure this product will do that for me.

Superb polishing cloth. The knit surface assures equal distribution of pressure so that little of no polish is removed.

Hi Simon, thanks for your request for a review of the buffing cloths I bought. Whilst your buffing cloths are good and I would buy them again from your online shop; given that they are recommended for being the best at polishing wood furniture; however I was a bit disappointed with the overall finish of my oak table after using the cloths, as sadly the polish looks very patchy in places on my brand new rustic oak coloured Oak dining table, despite me carefully applying the furniture supplier’s own beeswax polish (we have to use it under the terms of our 5yr guarantee with them) using the buffing cloth and then using another clean buffing cloth to work the polish in / buffing it to a shine. The cloth really frays and leaves bits on the table. I’m unsure if the patchy areas are due to the wax polish not being the best quality. So, when my 5yr guarantee is up, I will be looking for a better quality wax polish and will be seeking advice from your store as to which is the best colour wax polish you would recommend I use in my rustic oak dining table? Many thanks
