FAQs
What are the main ingredients in Lord Sheraton Wood Balsam?
The Lord Sheraton Wood Balsam is a blend of pure beeswax, pine turpentine, and linseed oil.
How often should I use this product?
Frequency of use depends on the furniture's condition and environment. Typically, once every few months is sufficient to maintain shine and protection. Observe your furniture and reapply as needed.
Can this be used on painted furniture?
It is best used on natural wood finishes. Avoid using on painted surfaces as it may affect the paint's integrity or finish.
What is the purpose of the pine turpentine?
Pine turpentine acts as a solvent that helps to carry the oils and waxes into the wood and aids in cleaning, while also contributing to the characteristic scent.
Is this product safe to use indoors?
Yes, but ensure the area is well-ventilated during application due to the pine turpentine content. Open windows or doors to allow fresh air circulation.
How should I store the Wood Balsam?
Store the container in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
Will this product remove deep scratches?
The Wood Balsam can help to minimize the appearance of minor surface scratches by conditioning the wood and restoring its sheen, but it will not fill or repair deep gouges.
Troubleshooting
Residue left after application
Ensure you are using a small amount of product and buffing thoroughly with a clean, dry cloth after application. Over-application can lead to residue.
Wood finish appears uneven
Apply a more even coat and buff uniformly. Ensure the initial wood surface was clean and dry. For stubborn marks, a second light application might be needed after the first has dried.
Product seems difficult to spread
Use a slightly damp cloth to apply the balsam if the wood is very dry, or ensure the cloth is not too saturated. A little product goes a long way.
