One of the best products you can use for your walnut stock and blued metal firearms, makes the gun look better than it did when it left the factory. If you use this product on hunting rifles, be sure to put the wax on several weeks before so there is plenty of time for the smell to fade away. The only con to the Renaissance wax is there is a strong odor until the wax has fully cured.
Well I've been using this product for about 2 months and it's very nice to work with. It's easy to apply and no other wax can compare to plus the bluing luster on the barrels just pop's on my shot gun. I'll be using Renaissance wax for a long time
I have a 1893 Marlin takedown that I want to preserve the stock without damaging. I'm considering a light coat of tung oil applied with an exceptional wax from Gilboys, a restorer of antique furniture from England over it that seems to be very good. Could you find time to tell me if what I want to do would damage this firearm. Much appreciated for any response. Tom
What is in it is a protected proprietary blend of refined waxes and is a micro-crystalline polish. You can use it on leather and metals and is museum apprived here in the U.K. where it was developed! Highly recommended!
I would guess you would have to remove all of the oil. I hated this stuff. I put a small amount on my rifles and even after I buffed it out there would be finger prints so easy. Just going to go back to regular oil and no prints
