- No petrochemical solvents, we use only pure pine gum spirits of turpentine
- Reusable Le Parfait jars with a Return & Refill discount scheme
- Our workshop roof is completely covered in solar panels and generates far more electricity than we consume
HOW TO POLISH WITH BEESWAX
- For optimum application we recommend you use our very fine 0000 wire wool
- 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
- Use the soft open-weave buffing cloth to buff the wax to a deep and lustrous shine
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 and 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 standard shoe polish 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 the next day with the soft shoe brush.
HOW TO GET THE BEST RESULTS FROM YOUR BEESWAX POLISH
Fantastic service ......
Can’t wait to get started .
Everything worked perfectly. The products accompanied with the information made my job much easier.
Hi Simon.
My Daughter Deborah purchased a old China cabinet. It belonged to the lady's grandmother.
So when she got it home it was in a sad way. So my wife Dawn stared to restore it, looking for help she took to the internet and found the Gilboys videos.
So over the next couple of months, she worked on it, but could not find the right wax to finish it. So she asked me to order the kit from your web.
When it arrived she was very excited and finished the unit.
It now sits in the hall taking pride of place with a new lease of life, thanks to your wonderful product and help.
I will try and attach photos.
Regards Derek.
I have used and reordered these products with excellent results on antique furniture. Gives the pieces a wonderful soft finish enhancing the patina. Easy to use, I apply with fine steel wool and polish with their knitted polishing cloth, works great.
Just what I needed to renovate all inherited furniture pieces.
Gives a smooth elegant touch to the piece, great product.
I have tried nearly every Wax on the market I have a cupboard full and they either leave smears, still come off onto your clothes days later or don't buff to a proper shine, finally found one that does what it is supposed to do and so effortlessly wish I'd found it years ago
Rolls Royce of furniture polish, the videos are superb and have only praise for Simon Gilboy giving excellent advice of technics of carrying out furniture repairs. I will supply before and after pictures of my late dads grandfather clock at a later review. All the best Jon
Quality product and service. Very happy customer.
Received in timely manor. I felt I had gotten a special gift with the packaging, personal note but most of all the most wonderful product I have ever found for my furniture. I worked on projects all day. Can’t say enough about how pleased I am and will order again
