ChaiRx – First Aid for Squeaky and Loose Fitting Joints

ChaiRX

If you have a wooden chair or table that has become wobbly, it is probably due to shrinking joints making them loose.

 YOU NO LONGER HAVE TO TAKE THE CHAIR APART

ChaiRx’s unique formula swells the joints, making them as tight as when they left the workshop and then it seals them, giving a permanent repair.  Developed in the USA, it is great for all types of wood, where round or square tendons join, such as wooden chairs, tables, staircases and other fine wood furnishings.

It comes with a syringe and a set of needles (industrial), as well as an application cap to get into those really awkward places.

ChaiRx has been highly recommended by antique restorers and fine master craftsmen.

Ideal for fluctuating humidity levels caused by central heating and air conditioning systems, which probably caused the joints to shrink in the first place. 

 ChaiRx joint First-Aid glue works by penetrating the wood cells, swelling the joints, and locking the glue in the fiber of the wood. ChaiRx’s unique formula permanently swells the joints and bonds them together.

If joints are separated or can be easily removed, ChaiRx can be applied directly from the bottle by coating both pieces that are to be joined. If the joints are still intact, simply select an appropriate sized needle to apply the glue into the space allowed at the joint. A 45 degree angled needle for hard to reach places is included in the kit.

Whenever possible, ChaiRx glue should be applied where gravity flow will allow the glue to stay in the joint.

Wood clamps may be used to stabilize or square up the chair while it is drying. Let chair set completely still for an hour after applying ChaiRx. The chair is usable  in 12 hours.

Clean up is accomplished with water. Wipe up any drips and runs with a moist towel. Make sure to rinse out the syringe and needle after each use to prevent clogging.

Briwax Color Names

We had a customer call the other day who was confused about the color names of Briwax. They were looking for Antique Brown. It took a while, but we finally convinced the customer that the color they were looking for was in fact, Golden Oak.

Let us explain . . . Briwax is made in England. Many of the colors of Briwax sold outside of the USA have different name, including P-7, Medium Brown, Antique Brown, Jacobean of perhaps a number of 37 or 181 than the names of Briwax in the US.

If you happen to have seen a can with one of the English names, here is the US equivalent.

English Briwax P-7 or Medium Brown = “Light Brown” Briwax in the USA
English Briwax Antique Brown or # 37 = “Golden Oak” Briwax in the USA
Enlgish Briwax Jacobean or # 181 = “Dark Brown” Briwax in the USA

Briwax can Orig
Hope this clears up any confusion you might have. If you have other questions, visit our website: www.Briwax-TRG.com or our blog: http://briwax.wordpress.com/.

Briwax Spray

Our customers tell us they’re finding Briwax Spray to be the perfect solution for:

  • Using over Annie Sloan paints
  • Using over Olde Century Colors paints
  • Touching-up antique furniture that has been stored in a container
  • Keeping furniture in a showroom looking spiffy
  • Maintaining granite and marble countertops

Briwax Spray is special because it contains NO silicones and is available only in Clear.

SprayWax

BRIWAX SPRAY is a “surface shine and spray polish” for antique reproduction finishes, especially for use on hardwoods like Teak, Oak, Mahogany and Walnut where it gives added depth to tired surfaces commonly seen in antique and regular furniture showrooms. Briwax Spray is also an “all in one” top coat finish over any finish that has dulled over time.

  • Quick, and easy to use
  • Makes the wood feel silky and smooth
  • Produces a semi-gloss finish on raw timber
  • Wax shine on finished wood
  • Contains no silicones
  • Fresh aroma
  • Cleans and renews the finish

Apply a quick economical spray, wait for a minute and then wipe off with a soft buffing rag/lint free cloth for best results. On some unfinished woods, two coats of Briwax Spray will give a more even finish than one.
