For over forty years, RENAISSANCE WAX polish from England has been
the #1 choice of major museums, art galleries and institutions for the
preservation of the precious pieces. Professional conservators,
retailers, amateur restorers and private individuals throughout the
world depend on RENAISSANCE WAX to protect their collections and for
home use.
Prior to 1950, the only polishes
available were based on beeswax and carnauba wax. Unfortunately, these
natural, saponifiable products would cause damage when acids arose
spontaneously through oxidation or hydrolysis.
To solve the problem, a consortium
of international conservationists directed a scientist from the British
Museum to conduct intensive research and find the "perfect wax." When he
could not find any that met their exacting standards, he created a new
wax in his laboratory. The revolutionary formula he invented is a
semi-synthetic micro-crystalline fossil-origin wax entirely free of,
damaging acids. It remains chemically neutral and is therefore
completely safe, even on vulnerable surfaces.
The British Museum approved
manufacture of this wax for its own use and for distribution to the
public. That "perfect wax" is now available internationally under the
name RENAISSANCE WAX .

build-up; reveals fine detail & wood grain; non-staining, non-abrasive.

objects and infrequent use. A small dab goes a long way, unlike most
waxes that need generous application. Use a minimal amount of
RENAISSANCE WAX , rub lightly, and buff if a gloss is desired. The
long-lasting preservation reduces the need for frequent maintenance.
Airtight container keeps wax in perfect condition; always spreadable, no
caking or drying out; indefinite shelf life; no "polish smell;" no added
fragrance to endanger material.
