I don't think beeswax is ideal as a stair finish but what should I
use? My carpenters have recommended *Osmo* which is a fancy
finishing oil from Germany.
Attempting to buy some through Amazon, I got caught by their new

I've used Osmo frequently, very good but not cheap. In case you

needed. Also, you* may well find cheaper suppliers (on feebay or
elsewhere) than Amazon.
+1 for Osmo, nice finish used it in a bathroom and for door thresholds.
OK. I'll ask the carpenters for details tomorrow when they fit the
GLASS balustrades:-)


Oh dear. Another catering-department decision ?.

I know my place!
