About this deal
By applying lime wax to a piece of vintage furniture, you can enhance its character and give it a modern, stylish appeal while still preserving its original charm.
This is what Briwax says on their site: “The Liming Wax should be overcoated with BRIWAX for a more durable finish. So this is my finished piece, it’s brought out the grain of the wood beautifully I think and I really, really love it. After 10 days of homework and worksheets, you will be spending less, have clear financial goals and finally start saving!

Important: Always test product on a spare surface or inconspicuous area for colour, compatibility and end result. Overcoat with a clear wax polish for a more durable finish, or a finishing oil for a water resistant finish. Wipe off the excess with a clean cloth, you first buff against the grain and then finish in the direction of the grain.Stripping is much- MUCH easier with Jasco Stripper; water based; (paint and stain can literally fall off your project); and which I have used on/off for 39 years.
