I used to work for a furniture maker and they sold Briwax in the shop. I was lucky enough to be given a dented tin that couldn't be sold and it was really good.
I also use Johnsons lavender wax, cheaper and lovely fragrance. I use it for waxing drawer runners so as you open and close it's not only a good slide but a little waft of lavender for some time.
Occasionally I clean the wood, waxed and varnished, with Sheritons wood restorer. Works like wax but easier to apply. It's a mix of oil, turps and soft wax, an old formula people used to make up. It cleans off the dirt and old opaque polish leaving it gleaming. https://www.wilko.com/en-uk/lord-sheraton-caretaker-original-wood-balsam-75ml/p/0168718 They used to sell it in Tesco but things keep changing. I get mine from a local hardware store If i could only have one thing this would be it.
With a wax finish it can mark with heat and water can get under the wax and mark it so only have careful people to dinner
I can rise and shine - just not at the same time!
