5.0 out of 5 stars If it's good enough for the royal museum, it's good enough for me., March 29, 2008

Having a couple of swords of collector's quality, I wanted to assure that they didn't get pitted by rust or other surface damage. For years I used a light oil to protect them with relative success. Recently, I read about Renaissance wax and decided to try it for myself. It is truly a great product! It provides a protective coat that doesn't get sticky (like the oil did) and a shine that the oil never could give. If you have anything of value that you want to protect, this is something you should try. Hey, if the museums housing royal antiquities use this, it is good enough for me.

Great stuff! I use it on photos to prevent color changes and finger prints, and it stops objects from sticking to latex-painted furniture, oh joy--I used it on my painted mantle shelf and the objects sitting on it no longer stick! I can't wait to repaint all my bookcases and protect both the books and the paint by applying a coat of this stuff to the shelves. I does have a slightly unpleasant odor, but it fades after a few days exposed to the air. It is worth the price!

After having this recommended by everyone I talked to who used it, I ordered a can. First thing I tried it on was my jointer table. (cast iron)

I cleaned the table completely, rubbed it down with a Scotchbrite pad, cleaned that off with mineral spirits. The wax took even more dirt off as it was being rubbed in. I didn't expect that. The table never looked so good. No film left afterward to show fingerprints or smears. The wood pushed through afterwards acted like it was on a bed of Teflon. Amazing!

I next tried it on our Dining room table. So easy to use. Very little effort needed to buff it off. Way better than any paste wax I've ever used before. Amazingly, no fingerprints or smears whatsoever afterwards.

I don't know how long it will be before needing recoated yet, but so far I'm seriously impressed.

Also, athough the price is pretty high for the amount you get, the actual amount you need to use on any particular piece is almost insignificant. I figure this 200ml can will be able to be passed on to my kids. I can't tell looking into the can that I even used any of it, it is so efficient.
