10oz. Neutral Beeswax Furniture Polish (P2)

I have light oak bedroom furniture and when I first got it I used the wax recommended and sold by the manufacturer. It was so difficult and messy to use that I hadn't bothered since. But I was beginning to see the need to nurture the wood somehow so I looked online and came across this product. As it was highly recommended from other reviews I gave it a try and I am SO happy I did.First of all it EASY to use. It has the consistency and feel of a good quality hand cream and it absorbs easily without leaving marks or dark stains (I used the neutral polish on light oak). It took me a little more than an hour to do bed, 2 bedside tables and 1 set of drawers. It had previously taken me half a day to do the same work. The furniture was left with a beautiful natural sheen, a healthy glow almost. I also applied on two small sets of drawers that I have in each bathroom, one of them is a really cheap pine set of drawers from IKEA which was transformed as it was gotten rid of all the marks and stains of everyday use.Very economical too: on all of the above I used half a jar. Plus, it does not have the intensive chemical smell of other products. I applied it after I came back from work one day and left the bedroom window open for an hour. After this you couldn't really detect any smell at all.Overall, really well deserved 5 stars for this product. I have already placed my next order, 1 jar for my mother and another one just so that I don't run out... :-)

We have a large pine dresser in our dining room that had not had a clean for years and got quite dark and grubby. After removing the original polish with very fine wire wool and some methylated spirit (as recommended by a local carpenter we know - but check with a professional about this before trying that method out on your furniture, this polish went on very easily and now the dresser looks like new again. I made sure to use the polish very sparingly on one small area at a time, so working it in and buffing it after did not require too much effort at all. One coat was enough for the finish we wanted. There was a smell for a while applying the polish and for a while after, but I just left the window open during this work and for a couple of hours after and the smell was gone. I would recommend this product for similar work.

Easy to use, gives a good depth to the finish and it makes the house smell wonderful. I wouldn't hesitate to use it again. My usual Briwax is probably better, but I have to. buy so many different one of that for each type of wood we have.UPDATE: Yes, I still rate this very highly indeed, but if you want a really, really shiny finish, it is bettered. by the National Trust Beeswax polish, and the money spent there goes to a very worthy cause. If I'm honest, I do prefer a slightly less shiny finish for most furniture, so this is still an excellent choice. I also now have the Antiquax lavender polish which smell wonderful for a short while, but then sadly fades...

Following the purchase of a nice polished wood dining table from John Lewis I was determined to keep it in top condition. The retailer recommended a beeswax formulation polish and having looked at what was available I liked the description of this product and thought I would give it a go. I have had no reason to regret that decision. It has been used for over a year and gives first class results every time. Use sparingly and you will find that not a great deal of elbow grease is required to get the desired finish to your wood. The smell is a little unusual but it does not linger and is only from the natural solvent oil.

Easy to apply and a little goes a long way. I use this product on unvarnished doors and tables and it leaves a nice finish with a fresh aroma. I would recommend this polish.

After the initial smell of 'turpentine' dissipated the lovely smell of beeswax is left - best to use polish outside or with windows open, though doesn't take long for the smell to dissipate. Leaves a nice soft finish to the wood, soaks in really quickly and no oily feel or residue left. Yes, it does have warning labels on the jar as my partner pointed out but this is in reply to those concerned left by the company - I read this comment in a review of the same product in a smaller size:"It is a legal requirement that these warnings are included on the label as the polish contains Turpentine. Although this is a natural product (distilled pine sap), in its pure form it is flammable. Turpentine is the traditional and best solvent used in this type of polish and any polish containing Turpentine should have the same warnings."

What an excellent product. We just fitted wooden floor all over the house. Had floor protection on while other work was being done in the house. The floor protection had glue which did not come off after the floor protector was taken off. We tried all sort but to no avail. I stubble on this product,read the reviews and bought it. Wao!!! What do I say , it came off with little effort as well as polished the floor . What a fantastic product. Takes off the marks and the glue and smells great. Will be buying more.

Great
