About this deal

This simple to use solution turns a dirty, messy and time-consuming job of cleaning and polishing brass and copper into a fast and easy experience. Antiquax BrownFurniture Waxencompasses all original qualitiesof Antiquax Wax Polishbut incorporates a brownstaining property for all types of darker woods. I also tested how easy the wax was to spread and remove by applying each brand to a mirror and buffing it off. It enhances the grain and patina, whilst providing a lasting sheen with dust and fingerprinting resistance.

Mark Schofield used the waxes to get a moderate sheen on cherry test boards finished with a washcoat of shellac and three coats of wiped-on polyurethane.The strongest smelling wax, probably from its toluene solvent, this fast-drying wax was hard to apply evenly, which meant that buffing out took more effort. Schofield applied each wax using the outside of a fairly open-weave cotton cloth, monitored how long it took to dry, and then buffed the surface with some soft cotton flannel from an old pair of pajamas. Antiquax Original Wax Polish is a superlative wax polish blended from the finest beeswax and carnauba wax for use on all fine natural woods and antique. It has a rather strong mineral spirits smell but it went on almost as easily as the Renaissance wax with a slippery, wet feel. Antiquax Silver Bath turns the dirty, messy and time-consuming job of cleaning and polishing silverinto a fast and easy experience.

If application is located over carpets, or other decorative surfaces ensure you cover them before use as it can drip once applied. Put in your tarnished silver,making sure all the pieces touch each other, with at least one piece containing the silverside of the sachet. Applying the wax to a mirror was a great visual way to illustrate how some waxes spread beautifully, while others are sticky and lumpy. On this type of board, wax will not only raise the sheen but will reduce the size of the open pores and result in a smoother surface, particularly if you work it well into the surface and apply more than one coat.While you can use wax on bare wood or wood that has only a thin penetrating finish, you must apply several coats before you begin to get a modest sheen. Do not use on lacquered brass or copper, candlesticks with weighted bases, or articles with porous attachments such as wood, leather, horn, enamel, bone or baize. I decided to use cherry for the test boards and to finish them with a washcoat of shellac and three coats of a wiped-on poly.
