To improve the elegance and at the same time to protect undercoats, wax polishing is done on varnished surfaces. Wax polishing presents a highly pleasing lustre.
Wax polish is prepared by mixing bees-wax with linseed oil, turpentine and varnish in the ratio 2:1½:1:½, respectively, by weight. For preparing this, bees-wax is first melted or dissolved in linseed oil on low fire and then the mixture is cooled down slightly. Turpentine and varnish are then added to the mixture and then stirred well.
