@Raiden X Yes, you can use the Beeswax and Orange Oil as an earth-friendly alternative, but it will not hold the shine as well as the paste wax we suggest. You can recondition your table as often as you feel, generally when it starts to look dull is a good time.
Hello.. I have a wood front door on my home.. it's Alder. I would like to clean it then apply a good clear natural sealer without discoloring the natural OFF WHITE COLOR of the door.. Any suggestions would be appreciated. THANK YOU
Can I use Beeswax and Orange Oil in one product to wax the table using the same method? The coffee table is great condition and should I still rub it down with 0000 Steelwool and apply the wax using steelwool? How often should I wax the regularly used furniture such as coffee table and dinning table?
Question can you advise me on how to safely remove a build up of bees wax from my wooden cabinet? At the moment the polish build is not going away when cleaned with a duster it appears to look like a dull film on top of the wood. any sugestions on how to get rid of this effect would be much appreciated. thanks Joyce Burton.
Hello I have just found this video, I need to re-wax my pine furniture, I don't see when Charles used the white cloth, is there any other video's I can watch to from you to show the whole process?Really enjoyed this one, but feel there is a bit missing.RegardsSerena
+Serena Ridley The white cloth, as well as the steel wool, can be used to apply the wax (see the step at 3:40). Let us know if you have any more questions!
Hi, Yes this is a really good way to maintain a finish, I wish to add my 2 cents worth, I use a half-sheet sander with 120 grit paper, I place a folded kitchen towel on the dry table, place the sander on the towel and power buff the wax til all residue is gone(turning the towel to a new face when the wax starts to get draggy) . Then I moisten with water another towel and repeat this process using the sander for elbow-grease...
Oof, 120 grit seems really harsh. I'd probably be too scared and use something like 400. I use 400 to flatten out each coat of poly when I'm refinishing some surface. Hand sanding a folded piece with almost no pressure creates a pleasingly flat and smooth surface. I wipe across the grain with a spray bottle of alcohol to get rid of the dust. After applying the next (or final) coat, the underlying grain shows in high detail below the surface when you look at it in the light, yet you can barely feel it. Pleasing.
Great informative video! Wish i had seen this one before waxing my new oak table. Ive definitely put too much wax on! Any suggestions what to do now? Ive already buffed it etc but you can see small smudges due to excess wax, should i jist steel wool it and add a thin layer of wax?
Thank you. My mid 19th Century French cherrywood farmhouse table is going to appreciate it!
Hi Charles, perhaps I Wasn't paying attention but you showed us a white toweling cloth but I didn't see you using it.
Thank you for your help

I am sold. This should help my poor table that I have managed to destroy.How do I buy the kit?

While buffing, am I required to use a lot of strength?
+SIedgeHammer83 You do not need to dig to hard, but a solid strength does help bring out the full shine of the wax.
very nice video, great information.
one question, can wax be applied to a table which was previously oiled?
@Raiden X Yes, you can use the Beeswax and Orange Oil as an earth-friendly alternative, but it will not hold the shine as well as the paste wax we suggest. You can recondition your table as often as you feel, generally when it starts to look dull is a good time.
Thank you for the video. I now fell confident to repolish my table.

it looks like you are applying the polish with the steel wool !
Robert Williams You are correct! Charles is using 0000 steel wool to first smooth out the scratches and then to apply the wax.
If I put the wax on a bit too thickly, how do I thin it out before polishing?
good information. thanks a mill.
video just so so.

How do you use it with pumice or rottenstone?
