Cambridge Traditional Products10oz. Neutral Beeswax Furniture Polish (P2)

I have light oak bedroom furniture and when I first got it I used the wax recommended and sold by the manufacturer. It was so difficult and messy to use that I hadn't bothered since. But I was beginning to see the need to nurture the wood somehow so I looked online and came across this product. As it was highly recommended from other reviews I gave it a try and I am SO happy I did.First of all it EASY to use. It has the consistency and feel of a good quality hand cream and it absorbs easily without leaving marks or dark stains (I used the neutral polish on light oak). It took me a little more than an hour to do bed, 2 bedside tables and 1 set of drawers. It had previously taken me half a day to do the same work. The furniture was left with a beautiful natural sheen, a healthy glow almost. I also applied on two small sets of drawers that I have in each bathroom, one of them is a really cheap pine set of drawers from IKEA which was transformed as it was gotten rid of all the marks and stains of everyday use.Very economical too: on all of the above I used half a jar. Plus, it does not have the intensive chemical smell of other products. I applied it after I came back from work one day and left the bedroom window open for an hour. After this you couldn't really detect any smell at all.Overall, really well deserved 5 stars for this product. I have already placed my next order, 1 jar for my mother and another one just so that I don't run out... :-)

We have a large pine dresser in our dining room that had not had a clean for years and got quite dark and grubby. After removing the original polish with very fine wire wool and some methylated spirit (as recommended by a local carpenter we know - but check with a professional about this before trying that method out on your furniture, this polish went on very easily and now the dresser looks like new again. I made sure to use the polish very sparingly on one small area at a time, so working it in and buffing it after did not require too much effort at all. One coat was enough for the finish we wanted. There was a smell for a while applying the polish and for a while after, but I just left the window open during this work and for a couple of hours after and the smell was gone. I would recommend this product for similar work.

A lovely polish, not sticky and leaves a lovely sheen. nice aromatic turpentine smell.

Easy to use, gives a good depth to the finish and it makes the house smell wonderful. I wouldn't hesitate to use it again. My usual Briwax is probably better, but I have to. buy so many different one of that for each type of wood we have.UPDATE: Yes, I still rate this very highly indeed, but if you want a really, really shiny finish, it is bettered. by the National Trust Beeswax polish, and the money spent there goes to a very worthy cause. If I'm honest, I do prefer a slightly less shiny finish for most furniture, so this is still an excellent choice. I also now have the Antiquax lavender polish which smell wonderful for a short while, but then sadly fades...

The beeswax is quite easy to apply, and it leaves a good finish.However there needs to be good ventilation when using this product,as the fumes it gives off are very strong.

Great neutral colour for all antique wood. Scent is delicious

I use this on all my antiques and wooden furniture. It smells gorgeous. Does an amazing job and is so natural.Highly recommend.

Looking at the label on the front of the jar you'd be forgiven for thinking that the furry little bees had a right good time collecting and harvesting this bee's wax, but turn the jar 180 degrees and it seems you need to be wearing Breathing apparatus and an hazmat suit just to take the lid off.I don't think I've ever seen a household product with such a massive amount of warnings, If the saying "It does what it says on the tin" is anything to go by this stuff will kill or destroy everything in a 10 metre radius, if the label on the back of the jar had been shown in the description I would never have bought it in the first place, I know I can send it back but I've decided I'm going to use it on stuff in the workshop and hopefully it will become less volatile and less flamable as time goes by.I'll update this review as & when I find out more about the good and/or bad side of this stuff, but I definitely WON'T be buying anymore.
