Preparation
Preparation
Back
Ensure surfaces to be treated are clean, dry and free from dirt, dust and other surface contaminants prior to application of Liming Wax.
- Remove all previous coatings and finishes, including paints, varnishes, waxes and oils
- Sand the wood with a 120 grit sandpaper, through to a medium / fine grit of 180 to 220
- Sand in the direction of the grain where possible
- Take care to remove all traces of sanding dust from the area to be waxed
- De-grease the wood using methylated spirits if required
- For a true limed effect, rake the surface of the wood with a clean wire brush, following the grain and seal with a suitable shellac polish, sanding sealer or similar
- Fill any holes or gaps in wooden floors with Fiddes Floor Repair Kit
Application
Application
Back
Always do a test area before starting any project to assess product suitability and final finish. Follow the manufacturer's instructions on the tin at all times.
- Fiddes Liming Wax is best applied with a clean, lint-free cloth
- Apply sparingly, working on one small area at a time
- Leave for 15 minutes to dry
- Apply additional coats as required
- Buff in the direction of the grain with a clean cotton cloth
Finishing
Finishing
Back
Once dry, Fiddes Liming Wax must be finished with a coat of Fiddes Supreme Wax Polish, using the 'clear' option to retain the limed look. This increases the sheen level and adds protection to the limed finish.

Fiddes Lime wax oil
Great product which goes a long way

Just the job
I bought liming wax to re-finish a oak table top, Easy application and after a good buffing a really lovely finish. A really good product and British made !

Effective method to achieve limed oak
I used a circular wire brush in a drill to deepen the grain and then rubbed the wax in. After two coats the effect was about right and the clear finishing wax over the top gave a good polished finish.

Easy to use
Easy to use liming paste that needs to be sealed with clear wax.

Took to my pine floors well
Takes time, but lovely finish.best finished with cloth rather than a polisher.

Easy to use and wonderful finish
This is a lovely polish which really does bring out a lining finish on wood. Applied with a brush is easiest way to control the amount used -make sure you use gloves and a brush you don't need for anything else. It dries very quickly and with a good polishing motion buffs up beautifully. I used several coats to build up the effect and applied the clear polish from Fiddes to protect further.
