Fiddes Satin Finish Hard Wax Oil 1 Litre, Clear

Refurbishing my solid worktops I had used varnish before as I thought it would be harder wearing, but it was flaking off. I striped back all the vanish sanding thoroughly and applied this. I'm very pleased with the result it's brought out the different shades of wood beautifully, it's waterproof. I would say follow the instructions exactly. Also coverage is very good

Why did you choose this product over others?: Reviews on different sites says this is the best for wood Ease of installation: Great - but you really do need to read the instructions. First time round - left it on too long before wiping off. Lesson learned. Now I've got the hang of it - keep finding stuff to treat Durability: Seems good - had it on my garden office desk for a few months and still looks greate Quality: Lovely colour - used it on an Ikea beech desktop - looks fantastic - lovely deep colour and sheen

Used this to wax my new bare pine floors. I used one coat of colour with a coat of clear on top. It’s easy enough to put on, albeit a bit messy (wear plastic gloves!) once you get the hang of brushing it on and wiping off the excess, and the finish is good. It also seems to have good water repellency as I’ve spilt water on it when watering plants etc and another time the dehumidifier overflowed, and the water just sits on the surface and doesn’t seem to soak through the wax, which is very good news for me, as my (old) house is damp enough as it is! It’s been down for about a year now and I can’t see any deterioration in quality of the finish yet. Very pleased with this product, it’s worth the money!

Good Satin wax oil used on a new breakfast bar did 2 coats & it looks lovely also used on 2 chopping boards made from the left over wood from the breakfast bar

This was fantastic. I struggled with other oil and also a ronseal product that was water based and had lost hope till finding this product. After sanding down my kitchen oak worktop and applying two coats of this oil it now looks like new. I have left it a few months before completing this comment to highlight that it is wearing very well also. I would definitely recommend this product. 👍

Great product, easy application and improves the look of the wood.

Excellent product Very easy to use with a cloth and rub it in Goes a long way too

Having read great things I bought some for my oak kitchen worktop... five layers later it is still not very water resistant... Looks lovely however so I'll keep layering up. Y issue is the need to brush on and wipe off ...so as not to create stickiness.. it does achieve this but it really does take forever and is pretty wastefull. I'm hopeful that a few more layers will dot he trick. It will however make it poor value as with all the wipe on wipe off... It doesn't go as far as you'd hope.

I love our new floors!

3 stars because the product is good but the label instructions can be followed leading to a poor result. Using this product as described only works if you use your brush to push a wet edge down the length of only a few boards at a time. The product cures quickly and any wet edge left for any period of time will make a noticable blemish on the floor. So the lesson here is if applying with a brush, push your wet edge from wall to wall along the boards length.
