Clapham’s Beeswax – Museum Quality Polish Footlocker Finishline For Sale

This is the finishing wax that Jo Sonja has used for over 30 years.  All of her competition pieces were always finished with this as the final topcoat. 

This is a fine museum-quality polish based on an old family recipe from England. It is made from beeswax with a little carnauba wax and deodorized mineral spirit solvent.

Clapham uses deodorized mineral spirit solvent because it contains no aromatic hydrocarbons. It is easy to use and gives a delightful shine on paintings, wood, stone and marble.

Apply a little with a cotton cloth. The secret is to use the polish sparingly -apply it very thinly over the surface. Wait for about 5 minutes, and buff lightly with a pad of cotton cloth to bring out the shine. An old bed sheet works best. If the wood is dry, try a second application. -Or if it is really dry, try a third one. -Then as Roger’s Mum emphasizes, SIT BACK AND RELAX. Re-apply from time to time with use.

Note: Applying the polish to bare wood: Woodworkers often ask us whether the polish can be applied directly to the bare wood. Yes! And you will get a gorgeous soft beeswax shine, which will become part of the patina as the years go by.
