A Lifesaver for Repairing and Securing Antiques!
recently had an unfortunate mishap where I accidentally broke an antique bust that holds significant sentimental value. In my search for a solution to repair and secure it, I discovered Quakehold! 66111 Museum Wax, and it turned out to be a lifesaver.This clear, 2-ounce museum wax is remarkable. After carefully reassembling the broken pieces of the bust, I used the Quakehold! Museum Wax to hold the parts in place. The application was straightforward: a small amount of wax was enough to create a strong bond and stabilize the fragile item. The wax adheres firmly, preventing any further movement or shifting, which was crucial for keeping the repair intact.What impressed me the most was the wax's effectiveness without compromising the appearance of the bust. The clear formula is discreet and doesn’t interfere with the aesthetics of the piece, which is important for preserving the antique’s original look. The wax also ensures that the bust remains securely in place on its display shelf, providing peace of mind that it won’t tip over or get damaged again.Overall, Quakehold! Museum Wax is an invaluable tool for anyone dealing with delicate or valuable items. It not only helped me repair a cherished antique but also provided a reliable solution for keeping it secure. I highly recommend this museum wax for anyone in need of a strong, discreet adhesive for their collectibles and antiques.

Good hold, easy to remove
I used this as a temporary stabilizer to glue ceramics. It worked great and was easy to remove. Can think of many uses for this!

Toddler-proof!
I’ve been using Museum Gel to keep my fragile collectibles secure, and it works really well. With a toddler, I had to find a way to keep my legos from shattering! It’s easy to apply and dries clear without any sticky mess. I feel much better knowing my items won’t tip over accidentally, especially during cleaning or little bumps. Just make sure to check the surface, as it sticks best to smooth, non-porous areas.

Contrasting the company's different products
I'm combining reviews of the three related products from the same company, because being able to contrast the pro and cons (and intended use) of each, would have helped me when I bought them.First off, Museum Putty and Quakehold Putty are the same thing. It say so in the leaflet that come with it. They have two different names just to market to different users.They also make Quakehold Gel, and Museum Wax.Gel requires a sealed surface, and says not to use on wood. It is clear, and if you need to anchor a clear vase to a glass shelf, this is your product. I found it is also the most difficult to work with, so take that into account. It has a very slow motion ooze to it (like very, very thick honey), and I simply could not get it to stick to a crystal vase (to apply it directly to the vase) - I had to apply it to the shelf, and put the vase on it. Once I gave it time to "set" (and cleaned up the extra that oozed out), it did hold the vase well, and is virtually invisible.Wax is what you want for anchoring something to a wooden surface. It's a soft white color (translucent in a thin layer) that isn't obtrusive under most items. It's not hard like candle wax, it's soft, and feels like it's been liquified and whipped (incorporating air), then allowed to cool. I have no idea how they make it, I'm just talking about what it feels like. It's relatively easy to work with for the first few items, but if you are doing a lot, it gets somewhat annoying. Traces of wax stick to your fingers, and clings to the wax you are trying to attach to your item. Wipe(scrub) your fingers on paper towels in between, but eventually you'll need to wash your hands in water as hot as you can stand. It does come off.Putty is the easiest to work with. To me, it's something between cream and ivory colored, also unobtrusive under most items. Also needs a sealed surface. Though they say you can use it on finished wood, they also caution that it may lift the finish. Why risk it? Use the Museum Wax - people have been waxing wood for many centuries... I have used it on painted wood however, and it hasn't seemed to do any harm to that.I bought all of these about three months ago, and used them on the appropriate surfaces. I could live without the Gel (just don't need in in my circumstances) - I only found one place for it, but it's held well. On the other hand, the Wax and the Putty are two things I wish I'd found years ago!I have a litter of teenage cats that practically bounce off the walls when they are playing and chasing each other. Since I've used these stuff on nearly everything breakable within their reach, they have not managed to knock over a single thing! Vase/candleholder/picture frames/knicknacks/etc on tables, glass bottles on window sill, glass and ceramic food storage containers on the kitchen counters, the external hard drive on the desk, even the tippy charging stand for the headphones... (Once you start, you keep finding new uses.)One suggestion that is a bit different from the instructions, particularly with stuff that has a rimmed edge - rather than making small balls of the stuff, make small worms. You still space it out around the item (not the whole bottom nor whole perimeter), but it makes it easier to control, and less chance of some oozing out.Also, a little goes a long way. I've used perhaps a third of a jar of the Wax, and a bit more than three quarters of a packet of the Putty. I already have a spare packet of the putty though - I refuse to ever again be without a supply of both of these!Hope this helps!

Wax/Oil Residue
Wax residue, be warned it may leave a wax/oil marking if you let anything paper related sit with this stuff on it.

Great for pet parents
I have a rambunctious little kitty and I love antiques sadly the two don’t mix. I gave it a try and she’s pissed she can’t knock things over now! I'm so happy I can finally display some very beautiful items and I don’t have to worry if they’ll get broken. She has even tried slamming into things full speed and they don’t budge. She’s tiny at only ten pounds fully grown but she tries like hell anyway.
