Product Description:
Renaissance Wax is the #1 choice of museums, galleries and professionals worldwide for the preservation of precious pieces.
Renaissance Wax: This product which was formulated in the British Museum research laboratories in the early 1950's, in response to a discussion amongst museum technicians at an international conference on fine-art conservation.
The product was quickly accepted in the international museum world and has become a universally respected standard conservation material probably the most widely specified because of its almost unlimited uses.
Renaissance Wax is used for protecting wood, marble, metal, leather, rubber, plastics and even on paper and cardboard products. Renaissance wax is free from acids (pH neutral) and will not damage even sensitive materials.
When thinly applied and rubbed out to full lustre, the wax film is (and remains) glass-clear, with no discoloration either of the wax or the underlying surface. It forms a durable, transparent, & lustrous protective coating that will not discolour.
Prevents tarnish & corrosion by creating a barrier to dirt, fingerprints & moisture.
Non-staining, non-abrasive, & cleans beautifully -- lifting oil, dirt & the murky buildup of other polishes.
Use sparingly, rub lightly, & buff to a hard transparent finish (will retain a matte finish when unpolished).
What makes Renaissance wax so different?
It has a crystalline structure much finer than totally natural waxes, a property that confers a highly efficient moisture resistance. Countless statues and monuments in city streets are now protected by Renaissance wax from weathering corrosion. Arms and armour, steel and kitchen equipment of brass and copper in historic house museums, are kept bright and corrosion-free. The wax film is hard and dry and does not, like oil, remain sticky and attract atmospheric acidity.
When thinly applied and rubbed out to full lustre, the wax film is (and remains) glass-clear, with no discoloration either of the wax or the underlying surface. Renaissance wax is free from acids (pH neutral) and will not damage even sensitive materials. For example, photographs for exhibition or of historic value are waxed to protect the image from the natural acidity of hand or environmental pollutants. The wax does not stain or darken even white paper.
On furniture or wood carvings the wax delicately enhances grain or ‘flame’ patterns. It protects existing finishes such as french polish and can also be applied directly to sanded, unfinished hardwoods without need of sealers.Waxing is the last process in hand-made furniture and in the creation of wood, stone or metal sculptures. But it is the first aspect to be appreciated by hand and eye. The clarity and lustre of Renaissance wax makes an instant visual appeal, with a silk-smooth touch.
No matter how often the wax is used there is no loss of clarity, so that fine surface detail is never obscured. Repeated use of the wax deepens the lustre, reflecting more light from surfaces and making them more ‘lively’.
Renaissance wax is used by customers in the following ways: To protect metals such as silver, brass and copper from tarnishing, on collections of all types of metals (old coins, locks and keys, arms and armour both original and replica), on both the wood and metal surfaces of vintage cars and musical instruments, on bronze sculptures inside the home and outside exposed to the elements, on marble and granite worktops to prevent staining and on smooth leather items. These are just some of the applications the wax has been used on.
Note: A test should be carried out on a small, discreet area to ensure that the wax is suitable for use on that object. The number of coats of wax needed to protect the item will vary depending on the type of surface, how frequently it is touched and location. These factors will also determine the frequency of further maintenance required.
