Amazing job! Can't wait to try my five cans of Briwax on restoration of my antique furniture and floors

@gunnarthorsen 3 года назад

Tried lemon oil polish on an antique oak tabletop, it just sank into the wood in places and barely left a sheen elsewhere. Tried Renaissance Wax which left a soft sheen but didn't disguise scratches. Tried beeswax polish and got the same result as with the Lemon Oil. Tried Briwax, followed instructions, used it sparingly, and - it smears. Rub your finger or anything over the surface and smears appear. You can quickly buff them out but it's still a pain. Using just a little doesn't prevent this from happening. Good thing about Briwax is that it does make scratches less visible and it's removable with mineral spirits should you decide to do that. I haven't found a single furniture wax or polish that doesn't have an issue of some sort, I guess we pick the one with issue that we can live with.

Hi, I have piece of furniture which is of similar colour and grain as the table you treated in your video, and just wondered if that was the dark brown briwax you were using? Very good video 😀

@TheBriwaxGuy 4 года назад

I used Tudor in this video. The table is made from reclaimed oak.

@christophermcintyre5352 4 года назад

@@TheBriwaxGuy Thank you very much for your reply. I will maybe play safe and use the dark brown, as it's for a hall stand which is like a dark oak finish, and has a few faded areas. Not sure if the tudor colour would work on the dark oak finish. Would you have any advise on which may be best to use? Thank you.

Hi! I have very yellow/orange Red Maple cabinets. I want to warm them up and take out the yellow tone. Any good color suggestions?

@TheBriwaxGuy 6 месяцев назад

Take a look at our facebook page (Briwax-TRG). I've posted some examples of using Briwax over orangey oak cabinets pinned to the top of our page. Oak wood is different than maple but should have similar effect. Test the back of your door or in an inconspicuous spot before applying the entire surface. Watch my RU-vid video "Restoring old finishes with Briwax". I use our Briwax 0000 steel wool (briwax-trg.com/store/Briwax-0000-Steel-Wool-p495025639) for Applying Briwax. Briwax 0000 steel wool allows you to scrub the shiny surface more aggressively,

If I were to use this on my golden/orange oak kitchen cabinets, what would be the best way to clean those cabinets routinely without messing up the wax finish? Thank you!

@TheBriwaxGuy 6 месяцев назад

I've got to get better at replying sooner sorry. Soft cotton rag with mild dish detergent. If you accidentally remove the Briwax it's easy enough to reapply.

@lisagbart 3 года назад

Can l use this on my stained and polyethylene trim in my home? Our house was built 19 years ago and it needs an update. Thanks!

@TheBriwaxGuy 3 года назад

You can use wax over any fully cured finish. The higher the sheen on the surface usually the less impact the wax will have as very smooth surface don't hold as much wax and hence color.

@littlebeebs1 3 года назад

Will this product work on 2 year old Beech cabinets that have a Sienna stain and clear glaze ? I hate the orange tone of the Sienna . I just want to neutralize the orange without stripping and refinishing my practically brand new cabinets . Wish I could go back in time and choose a clear coat over them like I wanted . I let the salesman talk me into Sienna . He said the wood grain wouldn’t pop using clear . I know better than that because I actually stain and poly wood at work a lot . Thank you 😊

@TheBriwaxGuy 3 года назад

You can use Briwax on any fully cured surface. The degree to which it will alter the color depends on the level of finish on the surface. A smooth surface with a gloss sheen won't take much wax, hence not much color. A dry rough surface like bare wood will accept a lot of wax making the maximum color impact. That said you want to use a color with nor red tones if you want to neutralize orange. Tudor is a strong color with a raw umber tone that would be your best bet.

I have a Mexican credenza of what is probably pine that was treated with Briwax in the factory. It is 22 years old. At the time of the purchase I bought a can of it in the Golden Oak color for touch-ups. Since the original purchase I have probably applied 2 more applications to the top without removing the original. Also, I am thinking that there have been a few times I may have used Pledge furniture polish on top of of it. After watching your video I am thinking that was a mistake because it seems that the top now has in a thick and dirty coating that I would like to remove and then add a fresh coating to it. Do you think that the steel wool would be enough to remove it, or would I need to use the mineral spirits as well? Thanks!

@TheBriwaxGuy 3 года назад

Wax is an evaporate finish which means there is no chemical change as is dries. If you add another coat of wax the solvent in the new wax melts the old wax and the new and old melt together and become the new coat. If there is too much wax in some places rather than others you can just use paint thinner to melt what is already on the surface and rub it in better or remove some excess wax if needed. Pledge is really just a gentle solvent with some fragrance. It doesn't really leave anything on the surface it just gently cleans it.

@cellgrrl 3 года назад

@@TheBriwaxGuy Thank you very much. I spent yesterday buffing it with the steel wool, taking off a lot of dirty wax, but it was mainly just in about 3 places. So I evened it out and brightened up the surface. It seems dirt had settled into the old wax. I washed it off after that with diluted detergent, and then buffed it again with the steel wool until it had a luster again. I think I will hold off on the mineral spirits for some time later and then apply a fresh coat of wax. Thanks for the info on Pledge and your wax!

@ginacaputo5285 4 года назад

I used Briwax on a cherry table (not raw wood, I think finished with sealer) and the bri-wax left swirl streaks. Should I use fine steel wool to try to buff out or use mineral spirits.

@TheBriwaxGuy 4 года назад

It depends on the severity and quanitity of the swirls. If just one or two you could buff them out. If they are more numerous or heavy use the mineral spirits.

I used briwax on my pine display but someplaces I used to much can I sand it of and go back and put some more? Thank you

@TheBriwaxGuy 4 года назад

Sanding wax off is possible but requires a lot of sand paper. The paper gets clogged right away. Better to use a rag dampened with mineral spirits (paint thinner). This will dissolve and remove the wax to the rag. I do this in this video.

TheBriwaxGuy god sorry. Predictive keyboard. My question was would you recommend buffing briwax with a sheepskin pad on the polisher/ sander?

@TheBriwaxGuy 3 года назад

@@dixie002 Sorry I thought that was some jargon that I was unfamiliar with. We sell metal polish to the Budweiser Clydesdale teams and I thought when I saw "bridle' that it was some horse tackle jargon. Anyway. don't buff with sheepskin use tampico bristle brush. Rags and sheepskin work well but get loaded with wax and become ineffective at buffing. When you use a rag you have to keep turning it to a clean section. Tampico bristles don't get loaded with wax so they just keep buffing. We sell a brush for a drill. briwax-trg.com/Shop%20NOW/Shop%20Briwax%20NOW/shop-briwax-now.html

Sorry. I'm a furniture maker, not a filmmaker. I'll try to get better at it but like anything, it takes a little practice. There are a few chests of drawers and farmhouse tables I made in the '80s that you would find more obnoxious than the background music in my videos.

@TheBriwaxGuy 2 года назад

That is an oven cleaner, I think. I suppose it will work but it is a little like shooting and ant with an elephant gun. It may damage the underlying finish if the Briwax was applied over an existing finish so be careful and test a small inconspicuous spot first.
