"Okay we've got a nice even coat of wax. Just go around it and buff. Some places you might want to put a little bit of extra wax on it. Usually when I wax a chair for a customer, I put a lot of wax on it. But for the purposes of this video, I am just showing you the technique. Actually this job takes anywhere from an hour to 2 and half hours depending on how detail you want to get. Usually about 2 to 3 coats of wax and this chair will look beautiful. The wax will not fully harden for about a week so you can come back to it every now and then an buff it a little bit more and like a hobby. So there you have it. An old chair back to life ready to be sat on."
