    Comments about Renaissance Wax :

    I'm a professional silver restoration/conservation specialist who's been using Renaissance wax for 26 years. I use it to protect silver from tarnishing, on coffee, teapot handles, and ivory to seal out moisture and protect from silver polish, on my tools to prevent rust, even on my bicycle. A little goes a long way. The only downside is the smell, but this dissipates after about 24 hours from application. A small price to pay for a great product used by museums around the world.

    Comments about Renaissance Wax :

    Among all the other things this stuff is good for, it is great as a protective coat on oil paintings and even on delicate watercolors and ink drawings.....it makes the paper impervious to water and grime, but does not visibly change the look of the paper. Wonderful for protecting old documents and photos too. One caveat on oil paintings: make sure the paint has cured for 6 months or so before applying wax. If the painting is subjected to a smokey/grimey environment after being waxed, simply re-wax with Renaissance and it comes bright and clean---and it equalizes the sheen of different paint areas.

    Pros

    • Easy to apply
    • Refined acid free wax
    • Small amount required

    Cons

    • Expensive
    • Odor-dissapates in a day

    Best Uses

    Comments about Renaissance Wax :

    I use it on my wood-lathed items over oil, poly or acrylic finishes. It leaves a nice feel after it hardens completely, no 'drag' like other waxes. Protects against fingerprints better than other waxes IMHO and is completely clear unlike some other waxes.

    Comments about Renaissance Wax :

    I use it on my handmade knife handles (Cherry, Cocobolo,Rosewood) and on the Cherry presentation cases and it is astounding. Warm, hard non-greasey finish, easy and fast to use. Pricey but a very little goes a long way.
