We have an amazingly beautiful dining room table that I really love. Previously though, my husband had used a dusting product on it with beeswax that caused a heavy buildup of wax. When we would sit our coffee cups on the table, once removed we would have a white ring from the wax build up.
I have been working on removing all the layers of build up over the last year and slowly but surely it is a process. There are two methods that I am using. One is a combination of white distilled vinegar with equal parts water. Clean repeatedly will remove the excess wax. Or any wood cleaner/wax buildup remover will do. I have used the Holloway House Wood Cleaner. Once used, wipe off with clean cloth and then use a wood oil product to condition the table. Use products as directed.

This is the table after the wood cleaner and once I applied the Wood oil. | | | |

Looks awesome. Will have to try this. What kind of oil do you use?
The good ole trusted Old English! I also use that on our china cabinet. It's a lighter wood and it just shines when I condition it! It's gorgeous!
