Liquid Beeswax
Beeswax plaster topcoat in liquid form for the protection of lime based products and finishes. For lime based plasters and lime stucco available from our locations in New York Europe and Asia. Our liquid wax surface protector is an easy to apply water based solution usually applied by sponge but may also be brushed on.
For dirt and dust as opposed to moisture used for authentic lime based finishes and products, also for the Veiled finish on the pitted Terra Grosso.
Application:
When finish has dried over night or two days you can begin with the wax application. Follow the same pattern as when applying the stucco from left to right / top to bottom covering about 8-9 square feet at a time. You must work the wax into the surface and wipe any excess fluid off when no more will penetrate the surface. Move on to the next section. Marmorino wax, allow it to dry fully again preferably over night and then buff with soft batting or a clean soft cloth.
Beeswax Plaster Wax Color Washes:
Wax can also be used as a color wash by adding some pigments. This can be very useful if a particular finish looks too wild on the surface. By adding some of the same colorant used in the finish it will calm everything down a little.
It is also what we use for giving the Velato or Veiled look on top of our Terra Grosso and other finishes.
Coverage:
1qt will cover approximately 150sq'.
