FAQs
How often should I apply Briwax?
The frequency of application depends on the use and wear of the furniture. Generally, reapply when the shine diminishes or the surface feels less protected, usually every 6-12 months.
Can I use Briwax on painted surfaces?
No, Briwax is designed for use on bare or sealed wood surfaces only. It is not suitable for painted surfaces.
How do I remove old wax before applying Briwax?
Use a wax and grease remover or a suitable solvent-based cleaner designed for wood. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions.
What kind of cloth should I use to apply and buff the wax?
Use a soft, lint-free cloth such as cotton or microfiber. Avoid using abrasive materials that could scratch the surface.
Can I mix different colors of Briwax?
Yes, you can mix different colors of Briwax to achieve a custom color, but be sure to test the mixture on an inconspicuous area first.
Is Briwax safe for use around pets and children?
While Briwax is generally safe once dry, it is recommended to keep pets and children away from the area during application and drying due to the odor.
