I'm glad you were pleased with your results.....

one tip that you may have already noticed anyhow but since the wax is a "conditioner" as well sometimes the piece looks better after multiple coats..

I usually keep applying it untill it seems as tho the surface isn't "soaking it up" anymore then I'll wipe it down real good and let it sit for a day or 2 and put on ANOTHER coat ,let sit for 20 mins then wipe it down real good then followed by a hand buffing/polishing with a clean cloth


seems to work for me anyhow
