I don't make my own patch lube, but I have seen many here use Bee's Wax in their lubes. What is the purpose of the wax in the lubes made. DANNY
I'll stick with the real stuff....Kansas Volunteer said:The wax rings used to seal a toilet are chemically pretty darn near idinticle to beeswax and much cheaper per pound. Toilet rings ain't PC/HC but I haven't heard yet that the nit pickers are doing chemical analyses at shoots and 'vous. Toilet rings can substitute for beeswax in many formulas. True it isn't as hard as beeswax, it isn't meant to to be, but that can be a plus in cold weather. Toilet rings are natural, they are hydrocarbons and polymers. So is beeswax.

I use beeswax and olive oil.Danny Ross said:So lets say you use Crisco as a lube. How much wax would you use in lets say 2 cups, to raise its melting temp, but keep in soft enough to use as a winter lube.
