Step 1: Waxing and Buffing
Once again we take the inca™ Timberwax and the inca™
Polishing Cloth, and rub in a small amount of wax using the
circular motion, finishing with the grain. Keep rubbing the
wax over the surface to make sure that it has spread in a
thin even layer. The motto is “two thin layers are better
than one thick layer,” then wait until the wax has dried. It
will make a squeaking sound when you rub your finger on the
surface. Do sections at a time and work all the surface
legs, sides, tops and doors before you start to buff using a
clean wax free cotton cloth. By cross grain buffing you will
create a lovely lustre to the finished surface.
Please refer to the diagrams on how to make a bun and how to
do leg and turned areas.
