Polyx Hard Wax Oil .125L

Great product if you want a non harmful oil/wax finish for woodworking projects. A good product for natural finish with no need for varnish/spar varnish/shellac. Easy to apply and you can have multiple ways to apply this product.

Nice finish for woodworking projects. Easy application and good value.

I watched several YouTube tutorials before using this. The common theme was less is more - a few very light coats works best. They were correct! It is easy to get too much, but a little goes a long ways. My project turned out beautifully. Even though I got the smallest can of Osmo I still barely seemed to use any.

I'm a fan of Hard Wax oils in general, having used a two part product for many years. I typically apply two coats of a wax finish and then overcoat with a ceramic coating for improved water resistance and sheen. I had heard good things about OSMO finishes and gave this version a try and I'm very happy I did! I don't like built up surfaces for furniture, often Hard Wax is a bit too matte and can look under finished. This finish imparts a durable sheen without that poly look! This size is a great way to test on different woods before committing to a larger can. What I liked: 1. Sanding and prep is the same for all finishes of this type. That part stays consistent. 2. The sheen is perfect for my taste. Even after a single coat. I used it without the additional ceramic protective coating and I liked it better. 3. Pleasant odor that dissipated quickly after drying. 4. Shortens my process by days for furniture that doesn't really need a secondary ceramic coating. 5. No mixing, doesn't require a separate hardener. Note: Observe the warnings for disposal of materials after use. You still need to properly dispose of any application and polishing cloths in a tightly covered metal bin.

I did not realize .125, notice it is POINT 125, was so small! That turns out to be a tiny amount of the product. TINY. The can is about 2 and ½ inches in diameter and about 4 inches tall. See photo. For THIRTY DOLLARS. Really good liquor is cheaper. I don’t know how many ounces .125 liters is, but my guess is two ounces. That means this is $15 bucks an ounce. I tried it on a scrap piece of ash and it was something like putting on Danish oil finish that you have to rub on and then polish off. Looks Ok. I can’t say how well it will protect wood. My experience with wax alone is not great. Apparently, wax alone gives nearly zero protection to wood, but this appears to be a mix of polymer [?] and wax so the U-Tube fellow that recommends it, a well known U-Tube personality, says it lasts really well. We will see, but it is going to take time. Other products like Danish oil are proven to be good long lasting finishes without the super shine so common to other finishes like lacquer, Deft, and many Minwax products. I have personally found Danish oil to be easy to apply and give good protection to the wood. At the price charged for this product it would have to be far and away superior to other products. Until I can judge the long term results of using it I can’t say it falls into an extremely superior category. AD2

It was ok for what I wanted

This is my new favorite finish. It's so easy to put on abs looks great.

So this is the product that you use after the thin wax oil. This is my go-to finish on most of my turnings of solid wood. The look and feel of this is like magic.

Fantastic product and speedy delivery. Thank you!

great product, easy to apply and a great look for wood products. i used it on a bamboo wood counter top in my camper
