Paste wax is a type of finishing product used to protect and enhance the appearance of various surfaces, such as wood, metal, and even some types of flooring. It typically consists of a blend of natural waxes, like carnauba and beeswax, along with solvents and other additives. When applied, paste wax creates a thin, protective layer that can help repel moisture and dirt while providing a subtle sheen. To use paste wax, it is usually applied with a soft cloth or applicator in a thin, even layer. After allowing it to dry for a short period, the surface is buffed to achieve a smooth finish. This process not only enhances the surface's look but also helps to prolong its lifespan by providing a barrier against wear and tear.
