Mzungu71 Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 Hi there, I've searched the net but can't seem to find anywhere that sells wax for my Warwick Corvette Standard 5, so wondered if you guys might know of a place I can get hold of some (or indeed a suitable alternative). It's the ash body. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other people on here use beeswax for furniture and apparently it works just as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markytbass Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 I didn't realise that Warwick wax was so expensive. I have used Lord Sheratons beeswax balsam (£1.99 from Wilkinsons) but found it made the back of the neck a bit draggy even after a good buff. Now I have started using Briwax original clear beeswax and was really pleased with the results. I first used it on a maple mighty mite (unfinished) neck and was suprised how quick the neck felt after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve only ever used the Warwick beeswax BTW – not brave enough to try anything else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
