Staples Wax is one of the oldest and most respected names for protecting floors, furniture, and woodwork. In 1897 Staples began making floor and furniture wax with imported premium grades of carnauba wax, derived from Brazilian palm leaves. Since that time Staples Wax has earned its reputation for its quality blends and the industry's highest content of expensive carnauba, the hardest natural wax known to man. To this day, Staples Wax takes no shortcuts. It contains no synthetics, silicones, or soft beeswax. Curators and professionals count on Staples Wax not only for its rich beauty, but for its long-lasting protection.

For all-round excellence and versatility Renaissance stands supreme. It will gently lift the grime of antiquity and murky accretions of other polishes, leaving surfaces delightful to see and touch. Renaissance may be used with complete success on any solid surface including wood, metal, marble/onyx, shell, stone, ivory, plastics, smooth leather and even paper. A simple test on white card will show that the polish neither stains nor discolors. In addition to its normal role as a furniture wax Renaissance is used by many picture restorers to protect varnished oils from 'blooming' or other troubles due to atmospheric variations. The polish is useful also in reducing the gloss of a new picture varnish.
