Wow, what an array of recipe's regarding patch lube. I've used T/C's prelubed patch's exclusively, mainly because I didn't know any better. After doing some research on this most fantastic site I've discovered some more alternitives. Beeswax. Hmmmm, interesting. "Heres one for you, before I try it". I've got a can of "Sno-seal" boot dressing. The label reads "Beeswax with natural ingredients". Have any of you tried this as a lube? Thanks.
