Re: bees wax
Beeswax furniture polish for woodworking and finishing
Beeswax Beeswax Chain Bridge Honey Farm - Natural Honey and Beeswax Products - Berwick Upon Tweed - UK I think that DIY stores may well sell it too

Re: bees wax
I used to keep bees until I became allergic to the stings and had to give them up. now if I get stung its a blue light job.
What do you want it for, on its own you can only make candles, but mixed with the right proportions of pure turpenine and carnuba wax, it will make furniture polish. Try Blackburn and District Beekeepers website. Walter. |

Re: bees wax
The only way to revive dry wood is with linseed oil, that what I use on gun stocks, its also used on cricket bats, or try Teak oil. Beeswax will just seal it and the wood will still be dry.
