Re: Wax Finishes

Date:

As I am one who advised getting raw carnuba wax, I decided to followup on this.

I found out that carnuba (carnauba) wax isn't as easy to find as it once was! I did a search and found the following which seemed to lead somewhere. These seem to be places where the raw wax can be obtained, or information about the raw wax. didn't include what seemed to be the really large importers, or those who used carnuba in a compounded form. I'm really glad to have had this opportunity, as I have only a very small amount left, myself!

Anyhow, here are some possible sources/leads/etc:
