Our Liquid Wax End Sealer is used primarily by timber framers in the shop for sealing the end grain and joints of large timbers for deep oil penetration to reduce checking without the danger of staining the wood. It is great for any raw log ends sitting in the log yard, or any timber end grain exposed to the weather. This formula also makes the wax much more durable for a top coat for floor finishing, countertops and general furniture finishing.

Application: Stir before use if finish has been sitting for a while, and avoid application in direct sunlight or rain. Apply to woodwork of any type, using a real lambswool applicator or pad, a well-made brush, or a cotton rag.

Either rub in Wax as a polish and buff dry, or apply, let dry, and polish with a power buffer. May be thinned with Origninal Finish or Pure Citrus Solvent if desired. It can be used alone or as a finish coat on any woodwork for added sheen and protection; refurbishes any dry, dull logs, timbers, tool handles or other woodwork. It is excellent for periodic maintenance and cleaning of timber frames. Re-apply as necessary; there is no need to sand.

You can also use the Liquid Wax with a ScotchBrite stripping pad to clean dirt, abrasions from floors, counters, timbers, or logs. For floors, apply a thin coat with a lambswool applicator. Let dry until stiff to the touch. Power buff as with the Original Finish or Concentrated Oil, using the terry cloth/towel method.

DO NOT apply our finishes over the top of other products or finishes. Land Ark finishes are very durable; repair by rubbing more product into abrasions, scuffs and scratches with an abrasive pad ('Scotch Brite' - type pads). The nature of Land Ark prevents most problems with air bubbles, lap marks, and dust.

Color Application: Apply light coats with a lambswool pad or staining sponge and back brush or rub out. Mix before and during use. Colors are premixed to almost maximum intensity and may need lightening. If color is too intense, add non-tinted liquid finish to lighten, just a little at a time. Be sure to keep a record of all proportions used! A muddy grain or color blotching indicates the need to add more non-tinted liquid finish. Top coat with clear liquid or wax finish.

Coverage: 800 + square feet per gallon; rough-sawn materials tend to absorb more. You get less coverage on the first coat and more on the second.

Clean Up: Use any solvent to clean up any undesired oily spots on windows, tile, etc. We recommend using our Pure Citrus Solvent which is the food grade pure orange oil that we use in our products. It is much safer to use and any remaining on the surface will simply evaporate. The vapors from the solvent are non-hazardous. Do wear eye protection when using though! Lots of soap, water and elbow grease will work too!
