Questions and Answers

What is the best finish to use after using Colron Wax Remover?

This will depend on how far you have cleaned your wood. If you have cleaned back to the bare wood then you may want to consider a finish like Colron Beeswax or Colron Danish oil to protect the surface. If you have just removed the build up of wax but still retained the original finish then you can use Colron Finishing wax or any of the other wax finishes that we supply.

Do you have a product to remove build up of dirt without damaging the patina on the wood?

Colron wax remover is a very good product for removing most grime and dirt but it can also be quite abrasive if left too long. If you are looking to remove the build up of wax but still keep the original finish and patina then priory polishes polish reviver is a better option. This is a mild abrasive that works extremely well in reviving the original finish to a high shine without damaging your finish.
