The Three R’s of Waxing

Reversible — If you do not like the look of wax you can remove it using solvent. Generally this will be natural turpentine or mineral turpentine.

Repairable — Re-waxing your furniture will often repair minor scratches and marks and there are no issues with the next coat not bonding as the solvents in the new coat reactivate with the original wax on the piece.

Renewable — It is renewable and just needs a reapplication when it starts to look a little flat or dull. Adding a new coat will help it to regain its original look. Another advantage of waxing is the benefit of immediate use as there is no waiting for it to dry.
