About this deal

How wrong I was. After testing 21 brands of wax, I found that while the majority produce a good result, the effort required varies enormously. You can get excellent waxes for a modest cost, but there are a few that I wouldn’t use again at any price. Testing the waxes This wax has a pleasant orange scent. It was very easy to apply, with an almost wet feeling. The instructions say to wait 3 to 5 minutes or until a haze develops before buffing. After 15 minutes it smeared rather than buffed, and even after nearly 40 minutes it didn’t seem to really buff out. The shine is toward the lower end of the range. Shelf-life/Storage: A very long time if stored in original container tightly sealed in a cool dry place. Hazards: Flammable. Keep out of reach of children. Keep container tightly closed. Keep away from all sources of ignition-No smoking.

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. At the other extreme, on a very high-gloss finish such as rubbed out lacquer or a French polish, wax is superfluous and can actually detract from the finish. 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. This resulted in a moderate sheen, but with the grain structure still easily visible. Apply, then buff. 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.Type: A very high quality traditional type polish based upon premium performance waxes, carnauba andbeeswax, reinforced with a blend of hydrocarbon waxes to aid application and improve durability.This product has been specially modified to deliver Antiquax Original Wax Polish in an easy touse form.

Not linked to the office-supply store, this wax has been made in New Hampshire since 1897. Whereas most waxes make a virtue of containing beeswax, this one specifically excludes it (along with silicones). Like the S.C. Johnson wax, it was easy to apply and manipulate with a wet feel, but it was harder to buff away all the surplus, with some smearing left on the mirror despite frequent cloth changes. It produced a slightly lower-than-average shine. A mass-market wax, Johnson’s is almost as good as the best waxes. It has a rather strong mineral spirits smell but it went on almost as easily as the Renaissance wax with a slippery, wet feel. Buffing it was also simple, both on the wood where it produced a slightly lower sheen and on the mirror where all the wax came off easily. It gave some of the best results and was among the least expensive. Antiquax Brass and Copper Bath Box contains 5 x 30g sachets.

Antiquax Brown Wax Polishalso augments the natural beauty of the wood by enhancing the patina and enriching the grain.Preparation: The surface must be clean and dry. Antiquax Original Wax Polish can be used on previously waxed surfaces. For best results initially clean the surface with Antiquax Furniture Cleaner. Dura Seal is designed for floors. Nevertheless, the soft wax was easy to apply. It buffed out fairly easily, and had a medium sheen and a slight smell of mineral spirits.
