anyone use wax?

Sure. I have used it on a 4566. It doesn't hurt, for certain. It also makes them much easier to clean.
 
Renaissance Wax all the way.:)

Would that be a good wax for blued guns that are used for hunting where there's a chance that rain or sweat would get on it and cause rust ?
I went hunting one morning with a friend who brought along a custom rifle with a beautiful deep blue finish . Well it rained and by the time we got back in that afternoon his rifle had light surface rust on it .
 
Renaissance Wax is available at the Rockler Woodworking chain here in New England.
 
$175.00 wil buy an awful lot of Johnson's Paste Wax. I have used it for years on blued steel- handguns and long guns. I find it very good on surfaces covered by grips or stock . I like to give these hidden areas 2 coats of wax on both the metal and wood surfaces. It realy makes the blue surfaces, the ones exposed, shine and almost look like new.
 
Mike,
I use Renaissance Wax on about everything metal or wood. It's a micro-crystalline wax and polish. It's used by museums as a protectant. I bought mine at the NRA Museum, but I think Brownells also sells it.

GREAT STUFF ! ! !
 
What happens whenever any internal lubricant seepage gets on the wax-doesn't this mess up the waxed finish via removing the wax or otherwise, streak the finish?
 
Plus 100 lol for Ren Wax, use the stuff all the time for my stocks, nickel, stainless and blued gun, love it.
Eric
