Description

A soft, penetrating beeswax-based polish, designed to nourish dry timber floors. Buffs to a soft, natural sheen.

Use For

Raw timber floorboards.

Surface Preparation

Ensure the timber is well sanded and smooth. We recommend using a sanding sealer to reduce the amount of wax needed. Apply before waxing.

How to Apply
  1. Dip a soft, lint-free cloth into the tin and scrape out a small amount.  Rub into the timber with pressure in line with the grain. 
  2. Buff back any excess with a soft, lint-free cloth or buffing pads.
  3. Use up to three coats particularly if the timber is very porous, buffing well between coats. Allow up to an hour between coats to allow waxes to sink right in.
  4. If using an electric polisher, spread a small amount of wax directly onto the brushes and spread it over the floor with the polisher. Buff back using buffing pads or soft brush fittings.

    Dry Time

    Minimum 30 minutes. Ensure the surface is touch dry with no fingerprinting before applying the next coat.

    Maintenance

    Depending on wear, as the surface becomes dull or dry.

    Clean Up

    Warm, soapy water for hands or cloth. Excess wax on timber; dampen a cloth with mineral turpentine.

      Gilly's Australia range of products

      I have used the Cream for a number of years on modern wooden furniture and a selection of family antiques that are well over 100 years old. Having just received the liquid Beeswax, I have used this to restore an antique Swiss hand carved Bear Seat, with ease of application. The polish, giving pleasing finished results. Because of the heavy carving the wax in semi liquid form simplified the task. The combination of Gilly's waxes and polishes makes restoration, and preservation results personally satisfying and enables me to hand the valued pieces on to the next generation.

      So glad to hear that you are have found a combination to care of those heirlooms. Thank you for your review, John - much appreciated. Sara | Customer Service

      Good Product for Old Flooring

      Very happy with the product on our hoop pine floors which were covered in lead paint from probably the last 80 years or so. Once the paint was removed the hoop pine was revealed in its glory,so there was no better option than waxing and polishing with Gilly’s clear floor polish.Loved doing the application and seeing the results .We applied Tung oil to the spotted gum flooring in the kitchen dining room and the hoop pine in the lounge ,but decided the clear wax for the rest of the rooms brought out a rich honey colouring to the pine.

      Gillys floor polish

      This is just the best, I use it on tool handles/plane totes,goes well over boiled linseed oil. I have not been able to find a replacement for Johnson’s Paste Wax until now. I have tried many other suggested finishes particularly carnuba wax from bigger companies and have had to use gloves because of a skin reaction,something I have never had before.
      This has no negative effects at all really happy.

      Natural and effective. Great service

      Wanted a low/non-toxic product to nourish and protect my raw hoop pine floors. I called ahead to get advice on the best product for what I needed and received great customer service. The wax was easy to apply, brought a beautiful rich sheen to the timber, and protects it from water. No headaches from fumes, and I love that you can reapply as needed without a problem. Not only that, but the company is Australian and has a beautiful story behind it. Do yourself a favour and try it.
