Handcrafted by Wendler Woodworking in Colorado, USA, this wood wax nourishes and protects wood surfaces. Made of pure, high-quality natural beeswax and food-safe white mineral oil, it moisturizes wood while bringing out its natural beauty. The mineral oil soaks deep into the wood fibers, giving the wood much-needed moisture and helping its colors "pop." The beeswax creates a food-safe layer to seal the moisture in and keep bacteria out. There are no unnecessary additives.
Whether used on wooden furniture, toys, cutting boards or wooden utensils, this all-natural blend will breathe life back into the wood and create a protective barrier to keep it looking great. As it's 100% food safe, you can feel good about using it on cutting boards, bowls, spoons, and all your wooden kitchen utensils. Best of all, you know your wood care products are hand made locally right here in Colorado, USA.
Our recyclable tins are each filled with 4 fluid ounces of melted wax, which solidify to the perfect consistency to ensure easy application.
Our premium wood wax is handcrafted using only the highest quality ingredients. Not only do we make the wax by hand in the USA, we also only use ingredients sourced from inside the USA, ensuring your family gets the safest, highest quality product possible.
Our wax is crafted using only two ingredients:
We exclusively use 100% food safe (USP/NF) yellow beeswax. This means that the beeswax is certified to be highly refined & free from any contaminants; guaranteed to be of high quality & purity. Sourced from a trusted refiner with over 120 years of experience, the beeswax is 100% USA-refined at their in-house facility in New York.
All of our oil is 100% food safe (USP/NF) white mineral oil manufactured inside the USA by a company in business for over 75 years. Just like our beeswax, our mineral oil is highly refined & guaranteed to be free of contaminants. Perfectly safe to ingest or make contact with food, the oil helps provide a safe, long-lasting finish that protects & nourishes wood, making it ideal for kitchen use.
We never cut corners when it comes to our ingredients. While cheaper alternatives exist, we choose only the highest quality, food-grade USA-sourced beeswax & mineral oil to ensure the safest, most effective wood wax possible. Our commitment to quality means you get a product that lasts longer, protects better, & is safe for your home.
When applying wax to kitchen utensils, ensure you first wash your item with soap and water. Never put wooden utensils or cutting boards in the dishwasher & don't let the pieces soak. After washing, promptly dry with a clean towel and allow the piece to fully air dry.
Once dry, apply some wax directly onto the wood (start with a little and add more as needed; any excess gets wiped away). A clean cotton cloth works best, but you can also use a paper towel or something similar - you can even use your hands (they'll get moisturized, too!). Buff the wax into the wood as you go, evenly spreading it throughout the entire piece.
After you've applied the desired amount, let the wax soak into the wood for an hour or two. When you're ready, buff the piece again with another clean, dry cloth to remove any excess.
Heavier usage of your utensils & cutting boards will require waxing more often. The more you wash your piece, the more of the protective barrier you remove. If you notice your piece looking dull or dry, it's probably time to apply another coat of our Natural Wood Wax. There's no such thing as waxing "too often" - you can safely re-apply our wax after each wash, if you wanted. Waxing more often ensures your pieces last longer & always look great.
