BRIWAX / BRIWAX ORIGINAL

Surface Preparation
Unsealed wooden surfaces should be smooth, dry and clean. Apply Briwax using a lint free cloth or 0000 Steel Wool, thoroughly working the wax into the grain. Once dry, buff to desired finish with a clean soft cloth. Improved shine and durability can be achieved by first sealing the surface with Briwax Sanding Sealer. For antiques and pre-finished furniture, first check compatibility, then apply Briwax in small areas with a clean soft cloth. The Briwax finish can be maintained by further applications which will give increased hardness and shine.

This product is not recommended for use in areas where it will come into contact with water.

Above 20°C, Briwax will soften and liquify. Replace lid, put in a cool place and it will return to its original state.


SHERADALE
Sheradale is made to a traditional formula and includes pure Beeswax. Recommended for use as a final finish on old and new wood to obtain a good shine, retaining the natural patina and enhancing the full beauty of the wood. Particularly suitable on antique furniture.

Supplied in a 220ml Glass Jar for ease of use.

Apply Sheradale using a clean soft cloth, working in small areas and using a small amount of the wax. If you aply too much wax, the finish will appear streaky. Apply the wax working along the grain, then polish to the desired shine with another lint free cloth.

Always apply a test patch of the new finish first to ensure compatability

WAX FILLER STICKS

Apply using light pressure with the tip of the spatula and clean off surplus to leave a smooth flat surface.

When unsure of the exact colour match, choose a slightly darker shade. For a close colour match, blend different shades of softwax by successive applications using light to dark colours.


TOUCH-UP PENS

Preparation – Shake the closed pen or 30 seconds. Balls inside the pen must be audible. Remove cap, hold in an upright position and press tip down with finger once to release pressure, then press tip on a flat surface, pump once (maximum twice) to let dye flow down the tip. When tip is wet, apply to scratch (see Repair Tips). After use remove tip from pen and rinse under warm water until clean. Dry with a clean cloth and replace in pen and replace cap.

Repair Tip – Choose a touch-up dye colour similar to the light background colour of the wooden surface. To restore the grain, choose a colour similar to the grain colour. Apply the grain colour by dots or small strokes. Tone down excess dye with 0000 wire wool using light pressure only
