What type of wax

[Hawaiilad]

Those of you that is finishing with lacquer and then waxing and buffing the product, what type of wax are you using? How long do you leave it on before buffing?

[Mick Walker]

Larry, I have never applied wax to lacquer, but I would think good old Johnson's paste wax would work. Good luck with whatever you choose.

I just use Johnson's paste wax, applied with very fine steel wool. You don't want to leave the wax on long enough to begin to dry or haze over. I tend to goop it on, work it in for just a few minutes and then wipe it off, and buff. I really love the results!

Thank you Mick and Patte....that's the wax I thought would work, but I have not tried it before so I thought I would ask around.

There are a lot of "special" waxes for furniture builders, but some of the better ones still use the Johnsons paste wax.
