Light Wax
Shipping calculated at checkout.
Warmth and durability all in one place.
Light Wax is formulated to protect your finishes and give them the cozy, golden warmth we love in a well-worn antique. Use it on metal, to preserve and enhance patina, or to act as a protectant and sealer for raw wood. It pairs perfectly with your stained and painted pieces and gives milk paint an authentic, vintage sheen.
“Each piece has a story to tell. It is our job to listen...”
The beauty of antiques is that they have a story to tell. There is history between every layer of paint and within each spot of exposed wood. Light Wax helps you create and protect these elements of age on your restoration projects. Our exclusive combination of hard carnauba wax and buttery beeswax is easy to work with while remaining extremely strong. Enjoy the honey-hued vintage finish the natural beeswax lends to your piece with one simple application.
Use Light Wax to create realistic antique details!
Skip the years of wear and tear needed to develop the perfect amount of character and age on your furniture. With Light Wax, you can create a perfectly vintage waxed finish on any piece. The carnauba wax, used on bowling alleys across the country, protects and seals, while the warm beeswax adds a subtle tint to your piece.
Amy’s Tip: Use a thrifted cabinet door to experiment on as you develop your favorite waxing techniques for larger projects.
Use a Round Hog Hair Paint Brush for best results when applying Light Wax.

Great products.
Store owner replied: Thanks Alan! So glad you like it.
This is my “go to” wax for a soft antique look!
Store owner replied: Wow Amy, this piece is absolutely stunning!
Loved the white wax - went on buttery smooth. Picture looks great
I love the look and the way it hardens for protection
Wanted to add a touch to my fireplace & practice "old world"! Love the products!
I was new to wax- it made this project worth it! If I had not used the wax it would have looked plain and boring. All said- the instructions on videos and the label said apply - wait- buff. Oh my god, the buffing part was harder than I thought it would be- every nook and cranny you easily brushed it into now had to be buffed until smooth - it should be an Olympic sport. I would do again though!
I'm on the fence with the wax, need to use it a bit more. The chair I just did, I ended up going back to Annie Sloan. The light wax was just not giving me the depth needed. That said, I did mix white AS with Dark AS to get the color I wanted. I hope to like it that is all I can say!
Loved this product, it was flawless and easy to use. Made my project look perfect with a slight sheen.
I’ve used other wax’s but really like how this went on
Love the way it turned out. The fact that I don’t have to sand is so awesome. -2 coats of the caulk paint, c.wax then the light wax turned out just the way I wanted
I use this wax a lot. Used it to finish this piece!
Liming wax is the best wax I have tried. I have refinished a lot of pieces and tried many waxes and this one is the best! The application is easy and the effect due to the consistency is exactly what an artist needs for a precise application, effect and look. I just love it!
Love this staple!
Love the sheen this added
Still trying to master how too apply
Love, love, Amy Howard Light Antique Wax! A subtle amber color that naturally gives a beautiful antiqued look and a tiny little bit goes a long way! Highly recommended, you won’t be disappointed! Thank you Amy!
Can't be without it ! It is the magic in creating a yummy look not just to protect the piece ...Tanya Pearson
Used the light wax to seal and protect an old mirror that I refinished. It is an awesome product. I love all Amy Howard items! I’m a repeat customer.
The wax was pretty easy to apply and remove, we will see how the piece holds up over time.
Amazing produce! I layered 6 mediums. Then used light antique wax. I watched it come alive!!!
I initially waxed this piece with "Mind Your Beeswax" but it just didn't have the warmth I wanted so I tried "Light Antique Wax" and I'm very pleased with the finish.
Loved using the Light Antique Wax 1st, then a little Dark Antique wax for emphasis. Light Antique Wax gives dimension to your piece!
So easy to apply and quick delivery too!
I was so happy with how it turned out. Thank you for all your wonderful help. I love the videos and the fb page.
Very easy to use. It looks great
I used the one step paint on my oak dinning room table and and the light wax on the sanded down top of the table. Also the light wax on the one step painted base. I could not be happier with the results!! Nicest products I have ever used. Can't wait for my next project!!!
I used the light wax after I sprayed this owl lamp with La Maison chalky Mineral paint...then I was able to use dark Antique wax
My first experience with chalk paint!
This part of the process was like making magic happen. The hutch was looking kind of solid and dull. I had applied the Antiquing Glaze. With the application of the wax, the look I had wanted came to life!
Seems to work well!
Love it
