We just purchased a bedroom set made from Acacia wood. Would this product be ok to use on such furniture/wood? Also does this rub off easily?

Is the bedroom set varnished? Is so, I don't think so. Personally I have only used it on open pore finishes such as butcher block and it worked absolutely wonderful. Good luck.

it was made for bare wood and soaks in won't rub off really brings out the beauty of the grain of the wood. there are products made specifly for fine wood furniture available...

I used Butcher Block on Koa wood and an unknown African wood. Both turned out beautifully. I followed the directions, so after applying I waited a bit then used a soft cloth (cotton t-shirt type) to rub off excess. There was no residue or sticky/oily finish. I will continue to use Butcher Block and try on other woods as well. I hope this helps.

Not sure. If the set has a lacquered finish I doubt it. This product works great on unfinished wood. Let it sit for awhile and then wipe off. The wood looks beautiful and not greasy feeling.

Acacia is a beautiful wood. The product is ideal for use in open pore finished, ie on unsealed wood with varnish. If your bedroom is not varnished this product is for you.

It's a mineral oil based product penetrates into wood. There's nothing to rub off really. You can potentially use this on acacia but with such an expensive wood you should verify what if any finish or oil treatment the wood has received before applying it.

I have used it on stained wax finish and had zero problems but that does not necessarily mean yours is the same as mine. If I were you I would use caution and test it in a place on the back that is not seen in how you position the furniture piece.

Again as noted on other responses, test it on an area which is not going to show. The stuff is strong, and might remove some natural finishes, like oil finishes. It is really not for furniture.

It deepens the color of the wood and in that way gives a much more uniform appearance. I had an unfinished pine piece, old and dried out, and I sanded it lightly first before applying the wax. It looked great. It is not a cover up material per se, as paint would be. I would take a chance with this wax, not that expensive, and you will use it for other furniture no doubt.

I had wrapped my expensive wooden furniture in blankets and then put wrap to secure it.I had wrapped my low end wood furniture directly and it worked out OK.I had wrapped this on a metal wall decorations. Some of the stretch wrap melted and got stuck on the metal in hot Texas heat. I was able to peel it off without any damage but not sure if it would work on wood. My suggestion is at minimum keep a layer of news papers between wood and stretch wrap. Hope this helps. All the best with move.

We have not tried it on furniture. You may want to try it on an inconspicuous place to see if the product would damage the covering. The product does a good job for smells in the air. Hope it works for you.

Daddys will work for you. I use it on my stained but not sealed acacia wood dining table.

It will not make it look new, so I would clean the wood first. After it is good and dry, use the beeswax generously and after applying a coat, wait a few minutes then buff with a clean, dry, rag that is white. It has a wonderful muted shine when used on wood furniture. To clean the crib, I might use diluted vinegar with dish detergent instead of Murphy's wood Soap. It has never done a good job for me on old wood. Anyway, that's my two cents. I just love the Van's Beeswax.

I would use a microfiber towel and then condition. If your furniture is near the kitchen then I'd consider cleaner with the leather cleaner first

I never used it before on leather furniture. Your question led me to try it out on my soft-leather beige couch. It cleaned it about as well as the leather cleaner I have, but it didn't leave a moisturizing finish as did the leather cleaner. It didn't do any damage to my leather but it didn't magically make the leather instantly clean either. I used a dilute solution. I will try a more concentrated solution at a later time. Good luck. Sorry I couldn't answer your question adequately.

Be careful this stuff can react with some wood finishes. Just pulled some off an armoire shelf and most of it came off but the rest is proving hard to get off. Trying to google a fix now.

lasts pretty long.. Winters are very dry so I would do it every 3 months.. Summers are moist and humid so once in summer. Its kinda like Butchers Wax, but has a softer consistency.. Enriches the wood color, moisturizes it, gives it a nice low sheen. Depending on the finish of your furniture or how dry and thirsty the wood is, you might want to do 2 applications to start. But only you can be the judge of that.

I have not noticed it rubbing off on anything once it is dry. Other products I've tried have rubbed off on sheets and clothes. Just to be safe I would wait at least an hour before going to bed after applying it.

Hi Josephine. The set is holding up well and looks nice. A drawback is, the wood must be oiled. I did it initially last year after the set arrived. The first time takes effort because the wood is "thirsty" and needs a good amount of oil. I did it again when I got the furniture out for the summer and the oiling part wasn't as time-consuming the second time, but I had to to sand some darkened areas before doing the oiling and that was extra maintenance. I don't mind this effort myself, by you will want to consider whether you want to do that work. It's definitely a higher quality of patio furniture than other sets I saw.

You should try using a product called "Chalk Paint." It's excellent for refinishing furniture and I highly recommend it. It comes in a myriad of colors. Have fun!

I used it on furniture and it works great! No residue and easy to work with.

I have never had a issue getting it off the furniture. I have cloth furniture I don't know what you have. I do know that sometimes soap helps on something's DONT USE ANYTHING THAT WOULD DAMAGE YOUR FURNITURE. try rolling the edges and then get under it and take it off in a slant.
