Minwax 786004444 Paste Finishing Wax, 1-Pound, Special Dark

Great quality product

Adds depth to a flat paint sheen by settling in any lines, grain, cracks to give a rich aged, antique look. Also protects paint from chipping. Wax is buildable. The more coats/buffing, the more sheen appears.

Bought this to wax the top on a table saw after reading reddit recommendations. Feel like a dummy for not doing this sooner. Protects the metal and makes a smooth glide surface for the wood. Waxing your table saw works.

I have a dining room table that has been bothering me for a while. It has gotten pretty dull in areas. I purchased some restore a finish and used it and was very unhappy with the results even using their feed-n-wax product afterwards. So I did a little more research and stumbled on a website that recommended this finishing wax. I really don't want to strip and refinish the whole table and am only looking for a way to seal the top and make it shiny again. I applied this first with a cloth and I think I got it on a little thicker than I needed to which made it really hard to buff afterwards. I used a round boar hair brush on a drill to do the first buff with then used a cloth and a lot of elbow grease to remove the swirls left by the brush and to make the finish "slicker" and smoother. There were a lot of spots on the table that were hard to rub over initially but with continued rubbing they got slicker. One coat made the table a little better and definitely showed a lot of promise, so I applied a second coat and my husband buffed that by hand for me. And finally a third coat, buffed initially with the brush then followed with a terry cloth bonnet on a buffer. This seemed to be the best way to polish this wax and has left the table looking amazing. My only concern it it tends to smear when touched or rubbed with a dry cloth, which of course isn't good at all, so I'm looking for a solution to this problem. I love the way the wax looks on the table though. It's a deep, soft shine which looks fantastic.

This wax is awesome but you need a floor buffer to use it. It makes such a difference on the look of real wood flooring. It brings back the rich luster you didn’t even realize was gone until you get it back.

This is wax and not a stain. Used it on new wood and only found it to have a waxy finish. Perhaps mine was old.

I use this in crafting as antquing wax. Works great.

Great product. Use it all the time.
