    Wax process: Wax is generally made of beeswax, if there is no wax, it can also be used as white wax for candles. When scalding wax in a small area, you can hold the wax block in one hand, and melt the wax block with an electric soldering iron or soldering iron in the other hand, and drop or coat it on the surface of the wood to form a thin layer.

    The essence of mahogany furniture is that it is not embellished with any paint, but the process of waxing is used, and the woodiness of the wood itself and the beautiful wood grain are adhered to. Waxing is divided into open waxing and closed waxing. Open waxing is to expose the wood eye (needle eye) and wood grain of the wood to the outside, and the wood with good information and the products with high technology level are generally selected for open waxing, so as to show the level of handicrafts.

    Closing waxing is to fill the pores of the wood eye (needle eye) to enhance the lubrication feeling, ordinary lacquer, because the lacquer is environmentally friendly, non-toxic and tasteless. When filling pores, beeswax is used to wax, first bake the wax into the wood with high temperature, then bake it into the wood with an electric heater, and finally use soft cotton cloth and cotton yarn to wipe off the remaining wax.

    There are five major pleas for waxing. 1. Color: The waxing is bright, the wax film is very thin, the appearance of the wood is not polished, but the waterproof is good, the wood is not easy to crack, and it plays a closing role, so the selection of wood is higher, and the ordinary color is even.

    2. Luster: waxing is not as bright as paint, because the brightness is determined by wax, the product is carefully polished and polished and the polishing of wax still has excellent gloss, but ordinary customers do not seek this role. 3. Lubrication:

    After careful polishing (Yiguxuan classical furniture), the effect is determined by the thickness of the sand and the thoroughness of the polishing, the sandpaper through the process of 180 ->320 ->1000 from coarse to fine, and finally polished with a fine cotton ball, forming a bright and translucent luster and soft feel. 4. Fullness: There are two kinds of open and closed to choose from.

    5. Clarity: leak out the original wood grain. It is also important to note that the baked wax must penetrate the wood thoroughly, and the temperature of the heat gun must not be too high during the entire operation.

    Furniture products should not be scalded, and they need to be carefully maintained.
