Beeswax
Care & Maintenance
To ensure the finish on your beeswax product always remains at its best, we would advise re-coating your product with ‘Maintenance Wax’ (33002) from time to time. This adds further protection to the metal and helps to prevent any rust or white blooms forming. Due to temperature changes or packaging, a beeswax product may occasionally show signs of a white bloom upon opening. This can be buffed with a soft cloth to remove.
Please note that where possible we would recommend using external beeswax products in areas of your property with high moisture content, such as bathrooms or kitchens. Light surface rust may appear if using standard beeswax products in damp internal environments, but this can be removed with ease.
External Beeswax
Care & Maintenance
Although the finish already offers a very strong barrier against environmental conditions, we recommend re-applying a small amount of ‘Maintenance Wax’ (33002) periodically with a cloth or brush which provides additional protection to the surface of your product and further protects this from any harmful external elements.
