Here is a recipe to make your own car wax. To avoid over drying whilst waxing, just wax your car one section at a time.
To make enough for 1 waxing
8oz/225g carnauba wax
2Â tablespoons yellow beeswax
16 floz/450ml turpentine
1 tablespoon pine oil
In a double boiler, heat the carnauba wax and beeswax. Stir, then leave to cool until the mixture just starts to harden. Stir in the turpentine and pine oil. To use, dip a rag into the mixture, rub onto the cars surface and then polish with a soft cloth.
