How to remove wax buildup from an antique English table
If it’s an antique, find and use the appropriate wax remover at hardware stores, but not just the build up, all of it.
As an authentic English antique, it should be French Polished, not waxed.
You can use any alternative, oils, polyurethane, wax, but it’s objectively wrong and anyway, not even close to being as nice.
And if value is important to you, and it should otherwise why care for antiques, a nice English antique piece of furniture made after the late 1700s until the 1930s should be French Polished with no doubt at all.
Not only British antiques, also many non English high end pieces were, and therefore should be, french polished.
