Finish - Beeswax

Products are hot-dipped into honey beeswax, providing a subtle matt richness to the underlying metal. Sometimes because of temperature changes, your product might arrive with a slight white bloom. We recommend you polish it with a soft cloth to restore the finish. Any excess wax can be removed with a hot damp cloth. If the ironware is exposed to any dampness or moisture it may develop surface rust. This can be easily removed by rubbing with wire wool. You should then apply maintenance wax with a rag or brush. When two areas of metal come into contact with each other this can rub away the wax finish, and we recommend a regular light oiling of any moving parts. The beeswax finish is only suitable for internal or sheltered fittings.
