Troubleshooting
Wax appears patchy or uneven
Ensure the wax was applied thinly and evenly. If patchy, apply another thin coat after the first has dried, or buff vigorously with a clean cloth to blend. For severe patchiness, you may need to remove the wax with white spirit and reapply.
Surface feels sticky after application
This usually indicates the wax has not fully dried or too much was applied. Allow more drying time in a well-ventilated area and buff thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth to remove excess.
Wood finish looks dull
The surface may need another coat of wax or more vigorous buffing. Ensure the initial application was sufficient and buffing is done with a clean, dry cloth until the desired sheen is achieved.
