Beeswax The secretions of the glands found on the abdomen of the bee, known commonly as beeswax, have been used since ancient times for gluing, polishing and preserving wood. Research has shown that the planks which made up the hulls of Punic warships were treated with pure beeswax almost 2000 years ago to protect them from the corrosive effects of saltwater. When slightly heated (max. 70° C) and in its pure form, beeswax can be used to penetrate and treat many types of wooden surfaces. Beeswax can be mixed with oil, alcohol or turpentine to produce a variety of polishing and cleaning pastes and liquids. A well-proven finish consists of a primer coat of linseed oil and single or multiple coats of a 1 / 3 mixture of linseed oil, turpentine and beeswax. Surfaces treated in this manner have a beautiful, satiny appearance, are relatively resistant to wear and can easily be retouched and refinished. Apply the wax solution in a thin coat and polish immediately, across the grain. 500 g No. 810006 1000 g No. 810007 Paraffin wax Extracted from mineral oil, paraffin wax is colourless, solvent-free, and water-repelling. It is used for sealing end grain, in wood turning, for mixing with beeswax, as a preservative for wood and metal, and for lubricating moving parts (e.g. plane soles, thread box). 1000 g No. 810016 Carnauba wax The leaves of the carnauba palm native to Brazil secrete a greyish-yellowish protective wax known for its hardness and excellent physiological properties. This carnauba wax is often used in cosmetic products and can be used to add hardness to beeswax polishes, improving their resistance to wear and glossiness. Carnauba wax is also well-suited for lubricating moving wooden parts and protecting metal 26
parts from corrosion (similar to beeswax). The wax offered here is unbleached and has a melting point of approximately 90° C. A recommended wax polishing paste: carnauba wax / beeswax / turpentine: 1 / 2 / 2. 500 g No. 810009 1000 g No. 810010 Yew vessel made by Lüder Baier, waxed and polished. Kirjes® natural oil wax The wax of the bearberry (arctostaphylos uva ursi) makes the organic Swedish finishing wax from Kirjes® a high-quality, organic wood protector. After sanding, apply (preferably warm) to the wood surface, rub it in with a scrub brush and polish it with a cloth. It emphasizes the wood's natural beauty and protects it from dirt and moisture. Drying time is 2-4 days, and within 2 weeks it hardens completely. Other ingredients include beeswax and Swedish linseed oil. It is free of chemicals and solvents. 300 ml No. 705356 27
