Great product with top reputation for woodworking.

My go-to wax for dark wood

This was recommended by a colleague and I have been delighted with it. I can build a lovely finish and it creates not only a lovely sheen, but also a depth of character to my walnut. If more shine is needed, the carnauba wax seals the deal!

Food Safe Wax
Adriana Pamplin
Great product

Does need a few coats

Thanks for your feedback and five-star review Adriana. (As we discussed) for anyone reading this, if you are applying the Food Safe Wax to raw timber without oiling first, it will act like a sponge. This is not a problem but does mean you'll use more wax. Sara | Customer Support

Liquid Beeswax
John Wilby
Great Product

A high-quality product that is simple to use and very effective on new untreated timber or on previously stained or weathered timber, restores the natural tones and beauty with a minimum amount of fuss.
Worked a treat on our 25-year-old Tessa Furniture, came up looking like new.

Hi John, thank you for sharing your experience with the Liquid Beeswax. Great to hear you are so happy with it! Sara | Customer Support

Excellent customer service

A huge thankyou to the wonderful team at Gillys for their attentiveness in resolving postal damage issues. Their product quality is superior and they showed great care in the way they approached the resolution of the postal service neglect. Highly recommended and I will continue to buy from them.

Scratch Cover - For Furniture & Floors
Sherri de'Brennel-Bourne
Amazing product

I bought Gilly’s Scratch Cover, it’s amazing stuff i definitely recommend it. Magic stuff, covers scratches, makes furniture look like new.

Dear Sherri, thank you for your postive review! We're so glad to hear you are happy with the result of the Scratch Cover and appreciate your taking the time to share. Sara | Customer Support

restoration waxes

I buy Gilly's furniture restoration/maintenance products, not just because they're top brand oils and waxes, but in the current trend of short-life synthetic furniture and household goods, (and houses for that matter), it's comforting to know that there are still people out there appreciating quality items from natural materials, and are willing to maintain them. Supermarket & hardware store shelves have reduced space to one generic furniture oil in SA, so fingers are crossed that Gillys will keep going with their excellent products. I have quite a collection of creams, oils and waxes in my restoration tool kit.

Hi Julie, what a stellar review for our products! Thank you so much for taking the time to let us know. I'm very glad to hear that you are so happy with our oils and waxes and that you appreciate our ethos. It's people like you who keep the Gilly's brand alive. Sara | Customer Support

The quality is great. An awesome natural and strong finish for my bee hives out in the weather. Doesn’t bother my bees. Was shipped quickly and an Aussie company. Great.

Pure Tung Oil
Morgan O'Sullivan
Top shelf service!

Fantastic!
Lightning quick postage, the bottles were packed very carefully, they contained exactly what’s on the in - high quality product.
Customer service even had an inkling as to what I planned on doing with the wax and sent through a warning that saved me from making a big mistake.
Will definitely be buying from again.

Dear Morgan, I hope that your project was a great succes. We sincerely appreciate your glowing review! Sara | Customer Support

Queensland customer

Very friendly, helpful and informative, old school service that I would recommend to everyone

Hi Ron, thank you so much for your lovely review! No bots answering questions at Gilly's. Sara | Customer Support

Gilly's forever!

Great company to deal with! Very accessible by phone and staff more than happy to answer questions and give helpful advice. Products arrive efficiently and with detailed instructions. A lot easier to deal with than a third party like Bunnings.

Dear Stuart, what a lovely review! Thank you for your kind words; your feedback is much appreciated. Sara | Customer Support
