Renaissance Wax Polish 65ml

I'm fairly new to this product for I've used other unforgiving products for refinishing wood stocks. I'm very pleased with the ease of application and results. Based on initial application, found it applies and removes very easily. It is also much easier to remove from checkering w/ toothbrush or preferably a soft horsehair brush... remarkably, a low luster sheen revealed within checkering. Based on Renaissance Wax long history, finish will never yellow. I'm confident it also perfectly protects ferrous metal finish for it is PH neutral. It provides plenty of working time and ease to remove and buff!

Works fine.

I modified some old brass lights and gave them some forced patina, I wasn't exactly sure what I should do to protect the surface after, clear coat? Oil? Wax? I stumbled upon this Ren wax after some online searching, but was skeptical about its effectiveness for my application. I came here to say I am more than pleased with the results, it darkened the colors a bit, and removed the "dry" look from the patina, while still leaving the mottled tarnished bluish coloring. The lights are on the ceiling of an outdoor patio, so time will tell how well this stuff protects. I know it's meant more for indoor items but I figured it couldn't hurt to try. I was also worried such a small amount would not be enough; turns out I barely made a dent in the container, I now have plenty more to try on other projects!

Renaissance Wax was originally developed for the British Museum in London to revitalize and protect their antiques and artifacts. It's a microcrystalline wax that is acquired as a part of the petroleum refinery process. Fortunately, it's also available for regular home use to guard our own valuable possessions from the damaging effects of humidity, heat, dust, environmental destruction, aging and ordinary wear. With its high moisture resistance, it forms a barrier against the above mentioned threats while forming a durable, lustrous finish. It can be used on wood, metal, leather, stone, and many other finished surfaces. Renaissance Wax leaves no sticky surface and also doesn't take fingerprints as easily as many other waxes. I also love that it doesn't stain or discolor over time. While I have used it on several of our more valuable antiques pieces, I primarily use it as a protective finish for metal work (both jewelry and other artistic works) as well as a wax coating for some oil paintings. NOTE: If you're using it as a final finish for oil paintings, the paint should have at least 6-9 months to dry (longer if thick impasto) and it should have a finished coat of varnish applied/cured prior to wax application. On jewelry and other metalwork, it prevents tarnish and corrosion. On older pieces, it first cleans by lifting dirt and remnants of other waxes leaving the surface with a thin, hard protective film. It's wonderful on shiny metal finishes such as drawer pulls and helps them to maintain their shine and not oxidize. Conversely, on those metal pieces that have been oxidized with a beautiful patina (either naturally or artificially), this wax protects that appearance to prevent the look from altering. Just so some of you don't get a big surprise when you order this and it arrives, that's not a typo on the product page...this Renaissance Wax comes in a tiny 2.25 oz. container. So, yes, it IS expensive...but I feel that it's worth paying the extra for something that works so well and is used by museums around the world. The only downside is the smell, but that gradually begins to disappear about 24 hours after application.

I have been using Renaissance Wax for years and it is quite versatile. I use it on my blued firearms and it protects them from corrosion and makes them look amazing. I also use it after polishing silver to keep it protected much longer. A little goes a long way so even this small container can last a very long time.

Awesome product. Believe the online comments. Expensive but it doesn’t take much

This stuff (Renaissance Wax) really works well. I have used it for a couple of years and have never been happier with a product Ive purchased. It has out performed advertisements by 100%.

I bought this product in an effort to preserve my '30s vintage Victor jack plane. I had been using paste wax to keep the rust away up till now, and have been mostly successful. The problem is, I use that plane frequently, averaging several times a week. I simply wear the wax off the tool in use. I applied the Renaissance Wax ( and I believe the polish is a misprint, this wax has no abrasive action that I can detect ) and was met with several surprises. First, the Ren Wax lifted the paste wax from the wooden handles. I had to constantly move my finger in the application rag because my fingertip would get clogged with paste wax that was being removed. Once the paste wax was removed, and the new Ren Wax applied, the buff rewarded me with nearly new looking handles. I was astonished at how beautiful the handles were, especially since I've owned the plane for years and never noticed. With the handles looking new, I moved on to the base. Again, the application of Ren Wax would remove the paste wax that was embedded in the cast iron body. After some time working a spot, the metal would be visibly cleaner and brighter than the surrounding metal. It took some time to wax the body, but in the end, the tool looks almost new. Inspired by success, I disassembled the plane completely, cleaned and waxed everything, including the screws ( the brass screws in the handles are particularly stunning now ). I simply cannot believe it's the same tool. I then waxed all my wood chisels, power tools, and workbench top. Sawdust no longer sticks to the tools now, and the finish appears to be much more durable than the paste wax ever was. I'll get around to waxing the table saw top, but that will be an all day project. In summary, I have tested this product on the following materials with outstanding results: Finished and unfinished wood Cast iron Tool steel Steel Stainless steel Chrome plating Brass Aluminum Plastic Rubber Leather Painted surfaces ( probably enamel ) I have found no issues with the product. Some complain about the scent, I found it to be much less invasive than paste wax, although I was in the garage with the doors open. It is true that you need to use the tiniest speck of wax you can get. I found that you wrap you application rag around your finger, and merely touch the surface of the wax, that's plenty. Two of those doses is enough to get complete coverage on a 2.75 inch by 12 inch plane base. The majority of time spent was cleaning the old wax/oil/grease from the tools. The time required for the application of wax and buff were insignificant overall. Other waxes "haze" but this one doesn't appear to work that way. It seems that you simply apply the wax, grab your buff rag and buff it. No waiting. To be honest, I was skeptical about the marketing hype, about how this product can be used on "everything" with no drawbacks. However, in practice, it appears to work exactly that way. I couldn't find anything that didn't benefit from a coat of Ren Wax.

I am using it for preserving coins and carbon steel knives. It is non-messy and each application requires only a tiny amount. Way better than oil.

A exellent product a little goes along way well packed and prompt delivery highly recommended .

nice product
