Newton's Dark Brown Antiquing Wax

Add Rich Patina & Aged Depth with Newton's Dark Brown Antiquing Wax

Give your furniture and décor pieces an authentic vintage character with Newton's Dark Brown Antiquing Wax — a museum-quality polish crafted from an old English family recipe. Perfect for upcycling op shop finds or adding warmth and age to any chalk-painted surface.

Why You'll Love It

• Creates beautiful patina & depth — draws rich, warm tones into crevices and mouldings for a truly aged finish
• Protects as it beautifies — seals and shields your painted surface while enhancing lustre
• Soft clotted-cream consistency — glides on smoothly with a brush or lint-free cloth
• Works beautifully over chalk paint — pairs perfectly with Newton's Chalk Finish Paint range
• NZ artisan quality — a premium finish crafted to last

How to Use

For best results, apply a coat of Newton's Lavender Beeswax Polish or Newton's Varnish to the surface first — this helps control where the colour sits and prevents staining your chalk paint base.

Apply the dark wax sparingly using a wax brush to work it into crevices, or a soft lint-free cloth for broader areas. Buff off any excess before it dries to avoid a tacky finish.
