If you’ve got a piece of wood which is oak, but it’s got a varnish on it, you will be able to achieve this look but it won’t be nearly so strong. Use a clean cotton cloth or brush to apply wax in a thin layer, working into recesses of carved details or surface imperfections.

Another popular use for liming wax is to apply it as a finishing touch after a piece of furniture has been painted.Using a soft cloth or brush, apply the whitewash generously, ensuring it penetrates into the opened grain. Keep up to date with all the accessories we have that will enhance your piece and you will love the outcome! While both can give a whitewash effect to wood, they’re fundamentally different products with separate application processes. You can see I didn’t do a good job applying the stripper in a uniform direction on the top one and that made for more work, removing the swirls, later.

This technique was used on oak beams in old houses and became a very popular method on furniture in the late 19 th century. Real Milk Paint is a kid safe paint and we back that up by having our milk paint tested to be compliant and meet the requirements set by the CPSC (US Consumer Product Safety Commission).The lime wax can be worked into the paintwork, giving the piece a distressed, shabby-chic look that’s incredibly popular in contemporary interior design. When you use liming wax, your wooden pieces will stand out with a shine and an attractive, whitened grain pattern. For a more traditional mellow finish use Liberon Black Bison Clear wax, this will give a nice smooth finish. If you have a piece of wood with a strong, visible grain to it – something like oak – you can really bring out this wood grain with liming wax. Liming wax is also known as white wax as it gives a ‘whitewash’ effect due to the wax soaking into the grain of the wood.
