    Check the label carefully. Some waxes stating carnauba,actually contain petroleum distillates which is not a good thing for some playfield finishes.

    I use Mequiars Carnauba and like the results. Good luck!

    "cleaning wax" usually has abrasives and solvent it them.

    What you want is just carnauba wax.

    You can usually tell when a wax actually has any real amount of carnauba in it, because it is $29 a can rather than $11. Blitz would be a brand that actually has a bunch of carnaba in it without any abrasive cleaner.

    Use the urethane F21 liquid (not spray).

    I had to turn my coil pulse down to low on all of my games.

    Srsly!
