Renaissance wax for knife care - 65ml (№ 1653)

When applied thinly and rubbed to a full sheen, the wax coating becomes clear as glass without changing the color of the wax or the underlying surface. RENAISSANCE WAX is acid-free (pH neutral) and does not damage even sensitive materials. For example, photographs intended for exhibition or of historical value are waxed to protect the image from the natural acidity of the hands or environmental pollutants. The wax does not stain or darken even white paper.
On furniture or woodcarvings, the wax delicately enhances the grain of the wood. It protects existing finishes and can be applied directly to sanded, unfinished hardwoods without the use of sealants. Waxing is the final process of making handcrafted furniture and creating wood, stone or metal sculptures. Nevertheless, this is the first aspect that needs to be assessed with hands and eyes. The transparency and brilliance of RENAISSANCE WAX make it visually appealing.
The matured wax coating feels smooth and silky to the touch. No matter how often the wax is used, clarity is never lost, so fine surface details never overlap. Reusing the wax deepens the shine by reflecting more light off the surfaces and making them look more alive. It is important to remember that it is necessary to test on a small inconspicuous area to ensure that the wax is suitable for use on that object. The number of layers of wax needed to protect an item depends on the type of surface, frequency of contact, and location. These factors also determine the frequency of further maintenance.
