Paste wax?

[Markru2002]

I notice alot of you use paste wax on your projects. This may be a dumb question but is the paste wax for cars and paste wax for wood the same product? Thanks.

We use Johnson paste wax (furniture) as it has no silicone in it which is the problem in car waxes. Silicone will transfer to your wood causing it to stain.

Mark, you don't want silicone on your wood as it will make it very difficult to apply a finish. You will get a "fisheye" finish. If your project has a finish on it and you want to apply a wax to it most use a wax such as Johnson's paste wax. Wax finishes should be redone done every so often though.

I also use Johnson's on wood and on the table tops of my tools to keep them slick.
