Improving My Windsor Chair
Having recently learned of your products on You Tube, I have used all three waxes included in the "Starter Polishing Kit", and have also now used the "Hard Wax Oil". I employed the wax on a Windsor chair and am very pleased with the result. It changed a rather dull looking piece of furniture to one that received attention. I regret I cannot send a picture of the chair because my daughter "appropriated" it for her home; apiece she had heretofore ignored. I am confident that future use of your products will also prove satisfying. It is gratifying to see a small business such as your suceed as a result of committment to excellence in your products. Sincerely, John Alford

I ordered the clear beeswax for two unfinished oak doors as I wanted to protect them without changing the light colour of the wood. It was really easy to apply and the doors look great and smell wonderful! I chose this company because of the quality of the product and their environmental credentials. Definitely recommend and would buy again.

I bought a G Plan Quadrille nest of tables in a charity shop. They had been used and abused and were in a very sorry state. I have no experience of restoring furniture. I came across the YouTube video and ordered the products. I set to work. The results are amazing! The tables look beautiful now, it's hard to believe they are the same ones.

Wonderful product
Found this product very easy to use after watching Simon's videos on YouTube. Very happy with the results on my G Plan Dining Table and very much looking forward to starting my next project soon

My 0000 Fine Steel arrived promptly & looks very good quality. I have not used it yet as we have just moved house, but I hope to soon, for a Wooden Seat Bench that needs a good waxing with good quality steel wool. I did not realise that Gilboys made their own Bees Wax which I will be purchasing next time around

Superb service
I wouldn't buy these products from anyone else, it's a delight to receive your parcel, It feels like my birthday .Lovely quality and your you tube videos help me so much .Thank you

Simply the best
I've only just opened my jar of set honey (a present to myself)... and all I can say is it was well worth the wait - a truly delicious local honey. A big thank you to all - and especially the bees 🐝 👏👏

Bought this old Ercol table that had some Danish oil on it, but it looked a bit drier each day. Not sure what the wood is, but bought the Pure Gold clear polish and now it looks totally amazing and feels so smooth. This polish is unbelievably good.

Gilboy’s Beeswax is a great product. After getting advice from Simon & watching his ‘French Polishers Trick’ video I had the confidence to refinish my antique Bergere chair which now looks amazing.
Thanks Simon for a great service & product.

This is excellent wax and i used it on hardwood without sealant. It gave an easy deep shine on polishing using the lathe. It is pleasant to use and comes with instructions and accessories. I had the 3 jar sample pack which is useful. This is the best natural polish that I have used.

Amazing products. I highly recommend ordering form this company.

The product is first class and a step up from other even premium brands. I would however be happy to receive just the jar without the retail fluff if this reduced costs and wastage. A happy customer nonetheless

I purchased a small kit with the Gilboys Pure Gold in it. The wax was a super product. The full kit made everything easy. I only had to open the package and start to work on the side board.
The packaging was very good and the little note of thanks was a lovely touch.
I would recommend them very highly.

I’ve never seen a shine on wood like it! Amazing ! I also love that it’s environmentally friendly. The team are also there to answer questions which is helpful

I have an original G Plan dining table that badly needed some TLC. After watching several Gilboy's YouTube videos I began the task of refurbishing my table. I am thrilled with the results and will definitely repurchase when needed.

Excelent products and superb advice from Simon. Your videos are so instructive.

A gift to myself!
First of all the delivery was super quick and the parcel itself was beautiful with a real personal touch! The wax has really helped improve my sun bleached chest. It probably needs another going over but a huge improvement. Nice to support a genuine independent business!
I can’t seem to upload the pics but trust me it looked great!

After watching a video on YouTube made by Simon Gilboy I attempted the restoration of a very old, bashed and bruised Ercol dining table. There were a few missteps along the way - I didn’t use Gilboys wood oil and polishing wax first time round - but after some very helpful email correspondence with Simon, I am absolutely delighted with the finished result. Thank you Gilboys!

Thank you so much for all the wonderful information on YouTube that has assisted my first attempt at restoring an old pub stool that belonged to my great grandad. The final finish with your hard wood oil was just perfect. I never realised how beautiful the stool was having only known it painted a hideous brown. I haven’t got a before photo but have a WIP one and a final one. The pub table is next and a pine kitchen table where I’ll try out the bees wax. A great product, fast delivery, lots of great online advice.
