    Default Hand buffing finish

    G'day, This has probably been asked before, but.....I've just started making bandsaw boxes and would like to find a good finishing wax that can be buffed by hand and gives a good sheen. Any tips?

    I'd suggest trying EEE Ultrashine for a beautiful finish or alternatively a Cainet Makers type wax (like Traditional Wax). The Ubeaut ones really do work very well.

    Cheers

    Hi guys,

    Just a quick note. EEE cream is not a finishing wax, it's actually a very fine cutting compound, which leaves a very smooth finish. You should use a finish over the top of it. UBeaut Traditional Wax is an excellent choice. Gives a great lustre and clarity.

    Regards,

    Rob

    D'oh! You are right, of course, Rob. I should think more sensibly before firing off responses
