## Overview

Gilboys Hard Wax Oil is a premium, all-natural wood finish designed for interior surfaces like kitchen worktops, floors, and furniture. It offers water, heat, and slip resistance with a quick-drying, solvent-free formula that’s food and toy safe. Easy to apply and maintain, it enhances wood’s natural beauty while providing durable protection in high-use areas.

## Description

Unlike traditional high build varnishes, our low build, hard wax oil is extremely easy to apply with a cloth, brush or roller. Providing a natural, protective, satin sheen to your wood. WATER RESISTANT, A minimum of two coats is advised to achieve a good level of resistance to spills of tea, coffee, wine and soft drinks. SOLVENT FREE, No harmful or hazardous solvents are used in the production of our hard wax oil. HARD WEARING, A scratch and scuff resistant finish that is perfect for use in high use traffic areas such as kitchen worktops, hallway floors and dining tables. It is also very easy to spot repair worn areas by lightly sanding the area and applying a further coat of hard wax oil, just in the affected area. HEAT RESISTANT, In our tests our hard wax oil has stood up to very temperatures associated with hot beverages and plates being placed directly on the surface. Again we suggest a minimum of two coats be applied for best results. FOOD SAFE, Because we only use natural plant oils and waxes our hard wax oil is safe to be applied on wooden surfaces where food is prepared and stored. SLIP RESISTANT, Slip resistance test BS 7976-2PTV certified. Suitable for domestic, commercial and wet areas (awaiting certificate). TOY SAFE, There are no harmful chemicals used in our hard wax oil. We are awaiting certification Suitable for use on all unfinished wooden surfaces including doors, floors, dining tables, coffee tables, and kitchen worktops. APPLICATION, Ensure the wood surface is smooth, clean and dry before applying Use a good quality lint free cloth, brush or sponge roller to apply Apply two coats for best results on high traffic areas such as floors, kitchen worktops and dining tables. Sanding between each coat is not always necessary but advisable for a smoother finish *Rougher surfaces may increase the drying time and will require more applications to achieve a smooth finish. TRADE TIPS, On initial application, if possible, remove the excess hard wax oil with a lint free cloth as you apply it. This will help reduce the drying time. Unlike traditional varnishes our hard wax oil is not a viscous coating and will perform much better if applied in multiple thin layers as opposed to heavy single applications. APPROXIMATE COVERAGE 500ml: 10m2

Review: Great finish - This is a fantastic product. Very easy application - no streaking or running and it looks great on red oak. Very durable so far but I am getting some of the Gilboy's beeswax for extra protection from water.
Review: Buy it - A very good finish and protectant, easy to apply and brings out the natural qualities of your wood. A little goes a long way! I have used another brand for years, but this is much better than that.

This is a fantastic product. Very easy application - no streaking or running and it looks great on red oak. Very durable so far but I am getting some of the Gilboy's beeswax for extra protection from water.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Buy it

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is easy to apply.
*by A***K on October 26, 2025*

This is one of the best things I have ever applied to my wood floors. I cant believe how easy this was! Look at my floors! I know the pictures are of other things but also the floors are there. I did this in one weekend and theyre perfect and shiny and the wood grain looks good and they seem durable. I mean I just did them so I dont know yet. Ill be buying this a few more times. I have other rooms to do.
