Renaissance Wax - Frequency?

[dlbx2]

I bought mine from a business selling it on eBay. There were several people selling it, and in different sizes, some offering free shipping. As stated in previous post, a forum member recently told me about it, and it is good as advertised! The two revolvers I have in the previous post had the stocks removed and the guns and stocks were done individually, after wiping off all silicone from a protective wipe that I had used. Although it does a great job of fingerprint protection, I always use cheap cotton gloves when cleaning guns.

Thanks, old reliable E-Bay....7 oz for $27.50 shipped, seemed to be the best deal. Antique dealer. I have been using some OLD wooden golf club head wax. Good, but running out. I don't think it is as good as Renwax, just heavy carnuba.
I look forward to using it .
Thanks

Renaissance Wax .......

I don't follow. Do you wax with Ren and then follow with selvyt or the other way around? Also, which selvyt cloth are you using in combination with Ren.?

Dan - If your putting several rounds (50+-) through your handgun every outing, I'd apply a moderate to light coat of Renaissance Wax, let dry and buff w/ Selvyt's washable Pro Polishing cloth (PR). If on occasion, you're putting fewer rounds through your gun, you only need to clean with Selvyt's Jewelers Cloth (impregnated w/ Jewelers Rouge) and buff dry with the Pro Polishing cloth. It maintains the exterior of my SS, blued and CCH (Color Case Hardened) SA firearms in immaculate condition, and the last process is relatively quick. I use non abrasive cotton gloves when cleaning all my firearms to eliminate finger prints best I can. Their also available at SelvytUSA. If you're looking for the best price on "Renaissance Wax", $25.50 for 200 ml (7 oz) including shipping in No. America, check out Restorer Supplies at: restorersupplies.com. Hopefully this more detailed explanation was helpful.

When I first started using it I found it at a Wood worker website. Was highly recommended for antique and high grade furniture.

Just So I Understand...

Earlier in this thread, a question came up about whether one should remove the oil before applying the wax. It wasn't clear to me if one should do that. If so, is the wax replacing oil as a protectant? Shouldn't oil be reapplied before the gun is fired?

BTW, the guns in this thread are absolutely stunning. Real show pieces!

Milt Sparks Holster sells and recommends it; it is the premier product for its intended purpose.
