    Post Tinting wax

    Sorry to hear about your finger Rod. I wont be able to look at my saw for weeks
    My tips a bit of an anticlimax after that but here it is.
    I heard you can add shoe polish to wax to colour it. Not the liquid type but the good old Kiwi wax type!! Apparently it's mainly carnauba wax. Has anyone heard of this before? I haven't used it but it sounds like a good way to match the wax to the finish.
    Cheers,
    Mark

    G'day Mark

    The easiest thing to add to the wax to tint it is universal tinter. This is the stuff they tint paint with it is quite compatable with the wax and comes in a variety of colours. Get some samples from your local paint shop they will last for years.

    The boot polish may be a little weak in the colour department when mixed with anther wax.

    Cheers
