Renaissance wax is simply amazing stuff. I know there are other waxes that are essentially the same but imo, this is the best protective wax for pretty much any kind of material (any metal, wood, and plastics/composites etc.) and is used in great museums to preserve their pieces of history, and if it’s good enough to preserve items HUNDREDS of years old then it’s good enough for me.

Regular paste wax works fine. I've been waxing my blued guns for over 15 years. Living in the Pacific NW means rain and lots of it. A days hunting in the rain would cover my old mod 94 Win with fine rust. Learned to wax, and problem solved. Start by removing the stocks so you can wax the hidden parts. Put it on liberally forcing it into nooks and crannies. After buffing with a cloth use a tooth brush to get the tight spots. And by gently tapping the bristles of the brush on the stamping letters and checkering you will get them buffed to. I wax at every cleaning. Don't forget the wood.

~I've used this Wax for many years. A little goes a long way and I'm on my 3rd can. It's very good to prevent fingerprints. I always keep this Waxz on my shelf. ~It's what the Royal Museum of England uses on their important items, even on their old "paper" Documents to protect and preserve them. ~I apply three coats of Wax on my Blued Firearms and it's good for six plus Months. ~I've found that Meguiar's Ultimate Paste Wax is also very good. I use this on my long guns.

This was exactly the video i was looking for.I have a true Russian Makarov that has a black finish which is a little hazy so im hoping Renascence will be just the product to help.Thanks again

This is the same revolver used in his Flitz review. Flitz is only recommended for use on Hot Blued firearms. The Renaissance Wax is a good product. Use it sparingly, a microfiber towel will make it shine. Always clean the firearm after use. It will help clean up faster using Flitz Polish and use the wax after.

They look great, I'll give it a thumbs-up too

Wow, was my response when you were done. Did a great job. 👍

Hey David remember I told you about refinishing my coach gun timbers ? Thats exactly the wax that I used. I also did my brass and timbers on my uberti pistols with it 👍🏼 good stuff.

Thanks for the information. I just bought some for use on my knives and firearms.

This stuff might be great in many ways but several reviewers complained about the very strong odor. I just use a silicone impregnated Rod & Reel cloth and I'm good to go.

That’s a sweet trooper. I have a 4 inch made in 1974.

It dries fast but buffs out great. Nice thing is it doesn't have the acids in it like other polishes.

Beautiful colt trooper looks lovely after the wax. I used to own the highway patrolman, and a model 29 s&w unfortunately they were destroyed by the police when we had the handgun ban in the uk in 1997.

Dave--it looks plenty good to me on the Colt...........I am going to get it for my 586........thanks buddy

Looks great 👍

Use this exclusively for all my guns including stainless, no more rubbing with oil or silicone cloth after cleaning, works wonderfully, I apply it with my finger though. Ought to see what it does to a blued colt python, it's purdy!

Dave, I hope you have that trooper shooting well. Stay well.

I’m cheap. I use turtle wax on my revolvers, shotguns and even my SKS. It does stop rust in the salty Florida rain.

Tried it works as advertised, love it👍

U can use that wax to protect the outside and inside of those wood grips also

That milky-look you had on your 586 was likely just a haze on the surface of the Bluing and the Flitz Polish removed that surface. It sure looks much better on camera. I'm happy for you my Friend.

I use Birchwood Casey gunstock wax. This stuff looks great too. That Model 28 looks close to a Model 27 afterwards.

Nice Colt Trooper, I need one.

One of the best products you can buy!

A tiny dab of Renaissance will polish my entire 27-2. The stuff is awesome. I put it on my stocks as well, not so much to polish them but to protect them

Vintage Colt blue finish is the best looking on planet earth.

Great wax, I use it on my guns. Little pricey but does a great job

I have a thing with oil... can't stand it on my hands, like nails on a chalk board. I oil my guns minimally (internals only). I've been using this stuff for years and it is amazing, no oil on my clothes or hands, no rust, adds luster and polish, and it lasts a long time between applications!

I have not heard of ANY troopers that don't shoot well.I use cast conical bullets sized to .355 yes you read it right .355 with 6.5 grains of unique and with a rest, gallon plastic jugs at 100 yards.

Good video. I’ll never buy a S&W as long as they have that stupid ridiculous integral lock. I’ll probably go with Ruger.

Yeah, my first time out with this wax last week was a mess. It dried super fast and acted like tack. I am kinda liking Greg Lyle's suggestion.

I used to have the same model of pistols.

I'm going to try this with my Ruger Security Six.

Late to the video. For those that don't know, some of the finest museums in Europe use this to preserve artifacts including Ancient coins.

What did you use to clean the gun before waxing

Can you wax the inside of the barrel to prevent rust?? 0.o

My concern is at what temperature does the wax begin to melt?

Does the dried wax feel wet like oil or sticky at all?

just to be clear and so i understand, this is a non abrasive product that actually protects existing bluing on a firearm? i can't afford nice weapons like the ones in the vid but i did just get a new marlin model 60 22 and would like to keep it looking good and am thinking of trying this

Can it work on a mat black Taurus 856

Do not use glitz on that new 586 that’s cold bluing and will remove the finish , Flitz is only for the older hot bluing

Does this work on browning hi power and 1911 colts

Do you have a gun stock that looks great? Use this wax on it and it'll look even better. This is a very high-quality product.

My model 36 chief could use some of this and it is in mint condition.

Perhaps wearing cotton gloves while waxing would help too.

Amazon would not ship this to California. Had to order it from MidwayUSA.

I use eezox.

Expensive wax

Hey David I uploaded some pics of my Smith & Wesson model 19-2 and S&W Model 1000 Super 12 after I took your advice and used the renaissance wax. Check out the luster over on my channel. Thank you!

So those it work better than flitz?

Be sure to strip the oil, silicone, whatever before waxing it, works much better, plus this wax resists fingerprints.

How is that compared to flitz?

Who knew !

I'm supposing this will remove my parkerized finish?
