Chestnut Products WW22 Wood Wax 22 – 450ml Clear

WoodWax 22 contains beeswax (for shine) and carnauba wax (for hardness). Blended together in a solvent to produce a soft creamy paste. This makes it very easy to apply over any surface.

WoodWax 22 is quick drying enough to be applied onto unsealed wood but works best on one of our sanding sealers.

If working on the lathe the wax should be applied with the lathe stopped.
Apply using a cloth (Safety Cloth or Stockinette works well with this); the wax spreads easily over the surface, after about 20 seconds it starts to drag slightly. This means it is ready to buff up; if you haven’t covered the whole piece by then don’t worry, just take a little more wax from the tin and carry on applying, the wax won’t mind waiting!

It’s best to buff WoodWax 22 as soon as you can. That way any surplus wax that might have been applied will be removed, allowing the shine to really show through.
If working on the lathe Safety Cloth should be used for the buffing process and let the lathe do the work for you. Off the lathe Safety Cloth or Stockinette can be used.

A second or even third coat of wax can be applied if required, leaving about twenty minutes between coats. After three coats the finish can become softer and will mark very easily.

WoodWax 22 is available in Clear, Golden Brown, Medium Brown and Mellow Brown.

Waxes

Using a wax is one of the quickest and easiest ways of getting a good finish on your work. Turned pieces buff easily on the lathe and just a little bit of effort will soon achieve a pleasing glow on larger items.

We use several different types of wax, from natural waxes such as beeswax and carnauba to manmade ones like paraffin wax and microcrystalline waxes.
Each have their own particular properties, giving extra shine or durability, and blending them together can give the best of both worlds.

If you’re seeking ‘easy to apply’ look no further than our WoodWax 22 If it’s hard-wearing you want then Microcrystalline Wax fits the bill.
If you prefer a solid stick you’re spoilt for choice; pure carnauba, a beeswax/carnauba and a microcrystalline option can all be found here.
And if you want your wax to be multi-purpose and smooth back whilst reducing the amount of dust created then it’s Cut’n’Polish for you.

Waxes can also be used for decorative purposes too, from the traditional white of Liming Wax to the bright metallics of Gilt Cream & Rainbow waxes.
