The Liberon Black Bison Fine Paste Wax in Antique Pine is designed for individuals seeking to nourish, protect, and enhance the natural beauty of all wood surfaces, especially those with lacquers and French polishes. Its key benefit is providing a hard-wearing, lustrous finish with good resistance to finger and water marks, while also preventing wood from drying out. A potential caveat is that it's best suited for interior use and smaller surfaces, requiring a minimum 20-minute drying time between coats.

No, this product is specifically designed for interior use only. Outdoor conditions can compromise the finish and protection.
Old wax build-up can typically be removed using a suitable Liberon wax remover or white spirit applied sparingly with fine steel wool (grade 000 or 0000), working in the direction of the grain. Ensure good ventilation.
While it can be used on wood with existing finishes like lacquer and French polish, it is generally not recommended for directly applying over standard paint finishes unless the paint is very hard and well-cured. Test in an inconspicuous area first.
Paste wax provides a thicker, more durable, and lustrous protective layer compared to many liquid polishes. It offers better resistance to marks and helps fill minor imperfections. Liquid polishes are often easier and quicker to apply but may offer less protection.
For lightly used surfaces, re-waxing annually is usually sufficient. Heavily used items, such as tabletops or cabinet doors, may require re-application every 6-12 months, or whenever the sheen starts to dull.
No, this wax polish is a finishing product and is not designed as a sealer or primer before painting. It is intended to be applied to finished wood surfaces.
Apply a thinner coat of wax. Ensure you are working it into the wood grain and buffing thoroughly once dry. If heavy build-up occurred, you may need to remove it with a wax remover and reapply.
The wax has not been allowed to dry sufficiently before buffing, or too thick a coat was applied. Allow more drying time and buff vigorously with a clean cloth. If tackiness persists, remove the wax with a suitable solvent and reapply thinly.
Buffing may not have been vigorous enough, or the surface may require another thin coat of wax. Ensure the surface is completely dry before buffing. Use a clean, soft buffing cloth or mitt.
Ensure the room is well-ventilated during application and drying. The scent dissipates as the wax cures. If sensitive, consider applying in short bursts or using a different product.
Preparation: Ensure the wood surface is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and old wax polish. If necessary, clean the surface with a suitable Liberon wood cleaner.
Application: Apply a thin, even layer of Liberon Black Bison Fine Paste Wax using a clean, soft cloth or fine steel wool (grade 000 or 0000). Work the wax into the wood in the direction of the grain. For best results, apply to small areas at a time.
Drying: Allow the wax to dry for a minimum of 20 minutes. You can test if it is dry by buffing a small area; if it comes up to a sheen, it is ready.
Buffing: Once dry, buff the surface vigorously with a clean, soft cloth or a sheepskin buffing mitt to achieve a high shine.
Re-application: For heavily used surfaces or to build up a richer finish, apply further thin coats, allowing each to dry and buffing thoroughly.
Compatibility: Suitable for use on all types of wood, including those with lacquers and French polishes. It is also compatible with modern and antique furniture. Silicone free.
Care: To maintain the finish, regularly dust the surface. If necessary, clean with a slightly damp cloth and re-apply a thin coat of wax annually or as needed.
