Description
Shithot Waxtik are individually shrink wrapped, hard sticks of wax designed solely for the use on the wood lathe by woodturners and are made from a special blend of animal, vegetable and mineral waxes including Carnauba (the hardest of all waxes) for a hard bright shine and durability, plus other high melt waxes for extra hardness, shine and water resistance, and just a hint of beeswax.
The Shithot Waxtik is applied directly to the work whilst it is spinning in the lathe, then with the lathe still running the wax is melted on to the work piece through friction. This is done by applying a clean soft rag to the work and moving it slowly across the face of the turned piece.
Use heavy pressure for a satin finish and light pressure for a more lustrous sheen. Second and subsequent coats may be applied if needed.
For a high shine apply a coat of shellac or spirit varnish to the turned piece then immediately apply the Waxtik as described above.
The Waxtik can be applied over our Shellawax and Shellawax Cream friction polishes, and also works extremely well over our EEE-Ultra Shine for a fully waxed finish. Can be used over most oil finishes that respond to a final buffing with hard wax including Organoil. and Danish oil. (Best used on oiled surfaces when the surface is completely dry and no more oil is sweating from the pores of the wood)
Shithot Waxtik is NON TOXIC and totally safe for use on all food implements, bowls, babies rattles etc. However being a wax it may show a dull or white spot if wet.
