Waxing vs Glazing Tutorial

Waxing and glazing furniture and craft projects create a whole different dimension. Both waxing and glazing can transform ordinary surfacing into extraordinary ones!  It’s a broad topic with muddy waters but I have created a tutorial on YouTube and embedded it here for you.

When it comes to making a decision on what to use where – and how, waxing and glazing can be confusing.  There is a world of products out there in the waxing and glazing area and I’ve tried many so I hope this video helps clear the confusion somewhat.

While I have my favourites and share them in more detail with my tribe, the video is less brand specific and more about using and applying.

The waxing and glazing video explains:

• What kind of waxes and glazes are available?
• How do I apply waxes and glazes?
• How do I use wax?
• Is wax better than glaze on furniture?
• What waxes and glazes are healthy for my family and home?
• How long does it take to cure waxes and glazes?
• What waxes and glazes are best for high traffic areas?
• How do I choose between the two for my project?
• Can you wax and glazes together and if so what comes first?
• What is metallic wax and how do you use it?
• Understanding ingredients and why they matter. 

I also explain more about ingredients and refer to the problem of fake ingredients and illegal imports.  I wrote this article on the beeswax recall and the potential impact and implications.
