The yellow metal tin of Johnson's Paste Wax with the red stripe seen in household cabinets for decades has been discontinued as of the end of 2021.
I have two cans, ( the wax is now selling for $99 for 2 cans on Evil Bay ). I always paid $6 a can for it locally in the past.
Seems like every time I come up with a nice bullet lube recipe, Johnson's discontinues the product that I need. Has been the case with BLL and Ben's Red bullet lubes.
I have two cans of the old standby Johnson's paste wax in my inventory, but I've been looking for workable alternatives. As far as I can tell it is the Carnauba wax that causes it to work well in bullet lubes.
I'm not certain if what I purchased today for $14 a can will work or not. Some trial and error with small batches of bullet lube will tell me ? ? ?
