Buy Wax Polish

Wax polish is a natural protective and nourishing layer for wood: it feeds the wood, makes it shine, and protects against dirt and moisture. This traditional finish has been used for centuries and is made from beeswax, mixed with natural turpentine for a spreadable, easy-to-use texture. At Honingwinkel.nl, you'll find wax polish made from real beeswax, suitable for almost all types of wood.

What is Wax Polish?

Wax polish is a mixture of beeswax and natural turpentine, made to maintain wooden furniture, floors, and other wooden surfaces. Unlike pure beeswax, which is quite hard and difficult to work with, wax polish is soft and easy to spread with a cloth. It gives wood a well-cared-for look, emphasizes the natural wood grain, and provides a subtle sheen.

Which Color Wax Polish Should You Choose?

Our wax polish is available in different shades:

• Clear or white, to preserve the original color of the wood and give it a soft shine.
• Orange, for a warm, well-cared-for look on medium-brown wood types.
• Brown, to give wood a deeper color tone, often used on older or untreated furniture.

Unsure about the right shade? Always test the wax first in an inconspicuous area, especially on lighter wood.

How Do You Use Wax Polish?

Apply the wax polish to the wood with a dry, soft, and lint-free cloth. Let the wax soak in for about half an hour, then buff the surface with a clean, soft cloth until an even shine appears. For long-lasting preservation, we recommend repeating the treatment periodically, depending on how intensively the furniture or floor is used.

What Surfaces Is Wax Polish Suitable For?

Wax polish is suitable for solid wood furniture such as tables, cabinets, and chairs, as well as wooden floors. It can be applied to both untreated wood and previously waxed wood for periodic maintenance. Please note: wax polish with beeswax is not suitable for people with an allergy to bee products.
