Hampshire Sheen Microcrystalline Wax
Item: HSMW130
Product Description
Microcrystalline Wax is an excellent protective finish for many projects, including wood, leather and metal. Fingerprint and water resistant, this wax is a hard-wearing, overcoat to wax and other finishes for extra protection. Food contact and toy safe when cured.
Although Microcrystalline Wax can be used as a lustrous finish on it’s own, we find it is best suited to a protective overcoat to other finishes. It can also be used as a coating for leather, metal and other media.
Our Microcrystalline Wax appears hard in the tin. We provide the product in a very high wax-to-solvent ratio, meaning you need very little to overcoat your work—a popular choice supplied in a 130g (4.4oz) lacquered lever lid tin.
Uses
Use as an overcoat to other finishes to provide a fingerprint-resistant surface. It can also be used as a finish on its own. Also, Microcrystalline Wax can coat other items such as leather and metal.
Colour and Aroma
Pure white in the tin and applies completely clear. It has the aroma of solvent and wax.
Container
