## Description

Howard SWAX16 473ml or 16oz SunShield, Wooden Outdoor Patio Furniture Wax with UV Protection : desertcart.ae: Health

Review: Quitó los rayones y manchas de los muebles de comedor y sala desde la primera pasada. Muy recomendable.
Review: Applied this to a home made Adirondack chair. The chair was constructed from oak staves that had been in contact with red wine for years so perhaps the application was more about bringing out the beauty than waterproofing per se. Same for the small table made from end cap of oak barrel. Both look great after just one easy to apply coating. Bonus picture after a summer shower - the wax chases away the water… The 16oz bottle should last a long time- a little seems to go a long way. Definitely pleased so far. (Bought this with hard earned cash - not a paid promotion…)

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you use on outdoor wicker?**
A: Yes, SunShield can be used on outdoor wicker furniture. Use an old tooth brush if wax gets stuck in the groves of wicker or consider using a product that doesn't have wax. For example, Howard Orange Oil can be used on wicker to help polish and add depth of grain to the wood.

**Q: can it be mixed with an oil based stain?**
A: I would think so. Wax is dissolvable in oil based products.

**Q: Does the label say anything about using this product on teak?  ..is it safe for use on teak?  Thank you**
A: I used the product in a humid, tropical environment on Mahogany.  It worked great.

**Q: Will this leave greasy marks on clothing?**
A: Yes, it leaves oil on clothes even after buffing. I wish that I had never used it. It is in the cracks of my rocker and leaves stripes on clothes.
