Renaissance Wax Micro-Crystalline Wax Polish
Renaissance Wax is a premium micro-crystalline wax developed for the protection and preservation of metal, wood, leather, plastics, and other surfaces. Originally formulated for museum conservation, it provides a durable, moisture-resistant barrier without leaving a greasy residue.
For cast iron woodworking machinery, Renaissance Wax is an excellent choice for protecting machine tables, fences, and other exposed metal surfaces from rust and corrosion. A thin application creates a hard, dry finish that repels moisture and reduces oxidation while maintaining a smooth, low-friction surface. This helps timber glide more easily across machine tables and reduces the risk of staining from rust.
Unlike silicone-based products, Renaissance Wax does not contaminate wood surfaces and is safe to use on table saws, planer tables, jointers, bandsaws, and other workshop equipment. The clear finish will not yellow, attract dust excessively, or build up with repeated applications.

I deal in antique arms and armour (www.artandarms.co.uk) and Renaissance Micro-Crystalline Wax is the only Polish I will let near my collection. It does not have any adverse effect on very old wood and metal and brings the surface up beautifully. I won’t use any other product.

Not the first time I have bought this wax and it won’t be the last. It is WONDERFUL! I love the way it prevents any wood damage due to water spills, tea, coffee, etc. It has also protected my french polished wooden doors from fading even slightly for many years now. There is nothing to compare with this product.

Renaissance wax, great stuff I used this on an old side board after giving it a good scrub to remove all the years of grime, it really brought it back to life and showed up the grain in the wood beautifuly
