Wood furniture polishes and wood furniture care

wax furniture polish

We carry two main brands of wax polish for furniture. Both are hard wax polishes.

  1. Golden Rooster is domestic brand which seems to be partnered with Kiwi. While this works fine, there is chemical smell to the wax which I personally find undesirable. It relatively inexpensive.
  2. Harrell’s Traditional Wax Furniture Polish contains beeswax and is a bit more expensive but is an imported brand which has been around for over 75 years. It is a well known brand and many professional restorers prefer this wax. Its available in 5 colors (Antique - Khaki - Colorless - Red Mahogany - Georgian Mahogany) though we may not always have all colors in stock.
