Special Effects Liming Wax, 250ml

• Liberon Special Effects Liming Wax is formulated to offer a white shade to stained or bare wood
• Special Effects Liming Wax produces a traditional 'limed finish' normally associated with period oak furniture
• Liming wax is ideal for application on woods such as oak or those which normally exhibit distinctive deep grain pattern
• On application, liming wax fills the open wood pores, offering contrasting tone and emphasising the grain across the whole surface area, typical of a traditional 'limed' finish

Preparation

• Ensure the surface is clean, dry and free from any previous finishes
• Open the grain with a Liberon Bronze Liming Brush
• On softwoods such as pine, use a wire brush or coarse abrasive paper to score the timber
• If you wish to enhance the effect, colour the wood with Liberon Palette Wood Dye before applying the liming wax
• Liberon Palette Wood Dyes are available in a wide selection of wood shades

Application

• Work the liming wax into the grain of the wood with Rustins Fine Steel Wool (0000), Rustins Extra Fine Steel Wool (+0000) or a lint-free cotton cloth and wipe over with a clean cloth to remove excess
• Allow to dry for 3 minutes
• Remove the white haze using a cloth and apply Liberon Black Bison Neutral Wax Polish, or if a water-resistant finish is required, with Rustins Danish Oil
• Apply a second coat of of Liberon Black Bison Neutral Wax Polish and buff or add another coat of oil
• The more coats of oil that are applied the greater the water resistance and the higher the shine

Important

• Always test product on a spare surface or inconspicuous area for colour, compatibility and end result

Packaging

• Liming Wax is available in 250ml and 500ml containers
