Ordered Pure Gold Beeswax polish. Easy order placement and rapid delivery. Nicely presented with personalised message and a packet of sunflower seeds.
Applied to a number of Oak and Elm furniture pieces and the sheen was way above any beeswax polish I have used before by some margin.
This stuff IS pure gold. I have more natural wood furniture to polish so it's handy that a small amount can produce such great results. Definitely a keeper and will not hesitate to purchase again when required. Recommended 👏
