Special Effects Liming Wax, 250ml
Liberon Special Effects Liming Wax is formulated to offer a white shade to stained or bare wood
Special Effects Liming Wax produces a traditional 'limed finish' normally associated with period oak furniture
Liming wax is ideal for application on woods such as oak or those which normally exhibit distinctive deep grain pattern
On application, liming wax fills the open wood pores, offering contrasting tone and emphasising the grain across the whole surface area, typical of a traditional 'limed' finish
Preparation
Ensure the surface is clean, dry and free from any previous finishes
Open the grain with a Liberon Bronze Liming Brush
On softwoods such as pine, use a wire brush or coarse abrasive paper to score the timber
If you wish to enhance the effect, colour the wood with Liberon Palette Wood Dye before applying the liming wax
Liberon Palette Wood Dyes are available in a wide selection of wood shades
Application
Work the liming wax into the grain of the wood with Rustins Fine Steel Wool (0000), Rustins Extra Fine Steel Wool (+0000) or a lint-free cotton cloth and wipe over with a clean cloth to remove excess
Allow to dry for 3 minutes
Remove the white haze using a cloth and apply Liberon Black Bison Neutral Wax Polish, or if a water-resistant finish is required, with Rustins Danish Oil
Apply a second coat of of Liberon Black Bison Neutral Wax Polish and buff or add another coat of oil
The more coats of oil that are applied the greater the water resistance and the higher the shine
Important
Always test product on a spare surface or inconspicuous area for colour, compatibility and end result

Liming Wax is available in 250ml and 500ml containers
