Full Description

Our all-natural, high quality beeswax wood finish is based off an 18th Century colonial recipe, that uses a simple yet perfect blend of high-grade natural Beeswax, Boiled Linseed Oil (we boil it ourselves, with no chemical dryers), and natural Pure Gum Spirits of Turpentine. This beeswax wood finish offers a perfect balance between wood penetration and buffing sheen. It’s a perfect beeswax wood finish for surfaces that don’t require a high level of moisture protection. This beeswax for furniture can also be used on top of most existing wood finishes as a high-quality beeswax furniture polish (spot test antique pieces in an inconspicuous area before use). Net weight: 5 ounces.

We spent years experimenting with, and modifying this historical wood seasoning beeswax wood finish recipe until we found the perfect ratio of natural ingredients that balances penetrating depth, protection, and buffing sheen for furniture, workbenches, and woodworking hand tools. We believe that our wood finish is the best beeswax for furniture. Our wood seasoning beeswax polish is formulated for just the right thickness and hardness, so that it will not only give a great sheen, but it will also last for a long time.

In addition to offering a lovely and touchable finish to your furniture, this beeswax wood finish uses all-natural ingredients, which will give you comfort in maintaining your health, as opposed to other wood finishes that use chemical dryers and other harmful chemicals. And as a bonus, this beeswax wood finish will make your workshop smell wonderful; like a mix of beeswax, pine trees, and artists linseed oil. Here's what the different ingredients do:

(1) The Boiled Linseed Oil enables this beeswax wood finish to give depth to the wood grain. We boil natural, raw linseed oil ourselves, rather than using BLO with chemical dryers. The boiled linseed oil dries much faster than raw linseed oil.
(2) The natural, wood seasoning Beeswax offers protection and sheen.
(3) The 100% Pure Gum Spirits of Turpentine is distilled from pine tree resins, and acts as a natural thinner to blend the beeswax and boiled linseed oil.

Directions for Use

This beeswax finish for wood should be applied to bare wood, or as a top wax coat on a dried varnish finish, with a soft cotton cloth. Let it sit for a few minutes, and then buff the wax to a sheen with a clean cotton cloth or an old T-shirt. After use, remember to properly store or dispose of your rag, to prevent the danger of spontaneous combustion associated with oily rags. Reapply when the finish dulls in appearance and needs a new polished look. Enjoy!
