I searched and searched for ideas to update them, and most of the suggestions were to paint the cabinets. Let me be super honest with you. I don’t have time to paint my cabinets nor am I a master DIYer! If you want a deeper colour, apply another coat of coloured wax. If you want a lighter colour, apply a coat of Briwax Clear Wax. The Clear wax will ‘thin’ the colour that was applied first. I was just wondering if you heard of anyone using an electric buffer for the wax? I have fibromyalgia and the buffing by hand would kill me, but these ugly cabinets need help In temperatures of above 20°C Briwax Original Wax may soften or liquify. If this happens, replace the lid and store in a cool place, it will then return to its original form. This is a traditional finishing treatment for all types of wood in the home and in the workshop. Briwax is a blend of Beeswax and Carnauba waxes and gives an instant natural sheen to bare wood. It is ideal for use on wood carvings and turned wood, skirting boards and doors, and is widely used in the pine furniture industry.

For most purposes, Teak Oil can be treated exactly the same as Danish Oil, except that the final finish is a high gloss. Apply at least two thin coats of Teak Oil. The more coats you use, the better the final gloss will be. Briwax Teak Oil is often used on outdoor furniture. Now, with another shallow dish and another cloth, apply a coat of Teak Oil in exactly the same way. Just wipe it on with the cloth, and make sure you don't leave too much on the surface, to avoid any drips. Leave this first coat to dry overnight. Maintenance: The renowned Briwax finish can be maintained by further applications, giving increased hardness and shine.

A lot of modern furniture is supplied as bare unfinished pine. To colour and protect the furniture, the easiest way is to apply a coloured wax. Just rub the furniture with Briwax Original Wax, applied with 0000 steel wool. After about 10 minutes, the wax will have hardened, and you can buff it to a deep shine with a soft cloth. That's all there is to it! If you have a kitchen from the 1990’s like me, you probably have honey oak cabinets that you want to update. Hi there! I have the same cabinets from your before photo. I would really like to try this, but I am not sure how to change out my existing hardware without leaving holes. Is there a wood filler that I should use- and should this be used before or after applying the wax? Known as "The World's Premier Finishing Wax". Briwax is a blend of beeswax and carnauba wax, two of the finest waxes known to man. Briwax is designed to protect raw wood and can be applied to virtually any existing finish. Use Briwax on all woods, untreated leather, marble, concrete, metal and painted surfaces. To ensure desired results always test on inconspicuous area first. Tinted waxes can be lightened or removed with the clear wax. 16 oz. The kitchen cabinets were in pretty good shape. They were generally free of dings, but some did have a few scratches. The bigger issue was that they were dull and dirty, and the finish had been worn down or even off in some places (like where they were grabbed to be pulled open). I also wasn’t in love with the orangey tone of them. So, enter Briwax.

Unlike most other wood finishes, you can restore the finish at any stage in its life by wiping down with mineral turpentine, and applying another coat of oil. Briwax Teak Oil is a blend of oils and resins which seal, feed and finish all varieties of wood. The penetrating finish dries to a gloss finish within a couple of days without leaving a surface film to chip or scratch. Teak Oil is often used on garden furniture, or similar items. It is slightly more resistant to exterior conditions than Danish Oil. Shelf-life/Storage A very long time if stored in original container tightly sealed in a cool dry place. No, Briwax Danish Oil does not come in colours, but you can tint it with Briwax Spirit-based Wood Dye. The resultant coloured oil does not have a long shelf life, and so it should be mixed and used within a few days. The disadvantage of mixing the Wood Dyes with Oil is that you are committed to a specific colour. If you apply the Wood Dye to your wood first, you can add more or different colours until you are happy with the colour, and then seal the colour with Oil afterwards. If you apply tinted Danish Oil and don't like the finished colour, you will need to sand the finish off before you can re-colour the timber.
In the morning, rub the surface with 0000 steel wool, wipe off the dust, and wipe on a second coat of Teak Oil with a cloth. Once dry, this should be enough. If you want a higher gloss, apply another coat. I’m planning on using the briwax on my oak cabinets, thanks to your post! My question for you is similar to someone’s above – whether or not to apply the wax to the sides of the cabinet. In addition, my cabinets have a rather large soffit with moulding at the top. Since all of it is oak, and front facing, I feel I should apply the briwax to the soffit as well? I’m a little nervous about this, especially worried about accidentally getting the wax on the ceiling or walls. Perhaps I should use painters tape? On bare wood, if you want to change the colour, use a Briwax Spirit-based Dye. Apply it with a cloth, and allow about 20 minutes for it to dry. If you like the colour of the timber already, simply miss out this step and apply Briwax Oils directly to the bare wood. Thanks for your informative kitchen update! I have my Briwax Tudor Brown and am ready to go! Wondering, after some time has passed, if you are still happy with the finish? Have you had to “re-touch” spots? or is all holding up well? First let me say THANK YOU …… I, too don’t want to paint my cabinets, so my question is, approximately how many cans of wax did you use? I have 23 cabinet doors.

Whether the floor is new or old, make sure the surface is clean and sanded smooth. The better finish you start with, the better the final result will be. Teak Oil was formulated for use on Teak, which is notoriously hard to finish well. Although there is very little Teak in New Zealand, there is a great deal of a similar wood – Rimu. Teak Oil also gives a great result on other common woods such as Kwila and Kauri. UPDATE: I’ve been asked about using liming wax to try to go lighter. I gave it a try! See my results here. This does happen sometimes on the second or third coat. Lightly sand the surface with a 240 grade sand paper and then apply Briwax Danish Oil thinned with mineral turps by 15-20%. By giving the product more flow in this way, it should cure the problem. Spirit-based dyes give a very intense and long-lasting colour deep inside the wood. Unlike many other finishes such as wood stains, Briwax Spirit-based dyes are not a finish in themselves. This means that you can get exactly the colour you want, and then protect it with oil as a final step.For the first coat use Briwax Danish Oil neat, or thinned slightly with about 10% mineral turpentine. Apply plenty of oil with a brush, cloth, or a foam roller, to make sure the wood takes up all the oil it needs. Wipe off the excess with a cloth as you go. This way you make sure there's enough oil in the timber, but you don't run the risk of creating a 'surface’ of Danish Oil on top of the wood. Leave this first coat to dry overnight. This is the hardest part (but still easy!). Once you have applied the Briwax, it will take some elbow grease and time to rub in the stain. You don’t want any clumps leftover. It should be dry to the touch.

Danish Oil goes a lot further than most finishes. As a guide, we find that a 5 litre tin of Danish Oil is enough for four coats on about 30 square metres of flooring. The first coat uses around half of the oil, and the subsequent coats are much thinner, because the wood has been sealed by the first coat.There are many copies of Teak Oil, and many alternative oil-based finishes including the traditional linseed and tung oil based products. However, most of these products are 'wet' oils – they never harden completely. This can leave them prone to collecting dirt. Briwax Teak Oil is a hardening oil. Once dry, it is durable and waterproof. Wax is not waterproof, and if spills are allowed to stay on waxed surfaces they can cause white spotting or watermarks. To remove these, just apply another coat of wax to the affected area. Applying new wax will remove the old wax and replace it with a new coat, which should remove the watermarks. However, if you allow the surface to remain wet for a long time, the watermark will get into the wood, and applying more wax won't solve this. This is the best part. You don’t have to remove the cupboards unless you want to. You also don’t have to sand them! Just wash away any grime. One of the biggest advantages of Danish Oil is that it's very easy to repair the surface if it gets damaged. Wipe down the surfact with mineral turpentine and 0000 grade steel wool, and apply one more coat with a cloth. Once dry, the surface will be good as new. If the surface is more seriously damaged, sand it lightly first and apply one or two coats of Danish Oil.
