Ben's Liquid Lube

maybe my glasses are dirty but if I am reading correctly it looks like Ben's Liquid Lube is the same as 45 45 10 lube without 10% mineral spirits?
Unless the liquid Johnsons wax is already thinned with something?

Thanks

No, different Johnson's product entirely. BLL is made with only LLA and Johnson's One Step liquid floor wax which has long been discontinued due to the environmental brown-nosing corporate goody-two-shoes game and as far as I know there is no exact replacement for it. The liquid "wax" was actually a polymer blend in a mostly naptha solution about the consistency of kerosene whereas Johnson's Paste Wax is a a soft solid comprised of mostly paraffin wax with a small percentage of paraffinic solvent and may at one time have actually contained some Carnauba wax.

Ric... not ALL of us! I am just getting rid of all my 45/45/10 and migrating to BLL. I caught it JUST right, and managed to see where it was being discontinued AND found a bunch. Snapped it up. I am set for life.

I should've got back on the internet long before this. 10 years was way too long. Not getting on Reloading Websites was a BIG MISTAKE.

I Missed out on all the New stuff.

I just got used to Tumble Lube and now It's PC.
I Missed out on all the spiffy tumble lube formula's too.

I'm in the same boat. Up to date if it was 2004!
