[QUOTE="JTComfort, post: 3054185, member: 103514"] I have been adding beeswax to my mineral spirit / tung oil finish used on several stocks. The top coat is approx. 5% beeswax by volume. Heating/dissolving the wax on a double boiler, storing in a warm spot and using within several days keeps the wax fluid. I don't think I would wax blued steel. I did try "FrogLube". It claims it is a plant-derived "wax." It has good protective qualities, but dries and gums over time -- not good for small moving parts. [/QUOTE]
