    a topic I'd like to revive, at least for a few...I was doing some late-night research, and found that guitar wax called 'Gerlitz'..just wondering if any of you have used that for playfields..I'm sure some others on this page would work just as nice..I want to find the best bang/buck..and Gerlitz is less than 1/2 the price of some listed here, but it's a small can of it..(which is supposed to stretch pretty far, but still). I will not be using millwax...I'm stuck on carnauba paste wax..it's the best version/approach imo.

    Quoted from ForceFlow:

    Did you notice "& polish" in the product name? That usually indicates that it's not just wax.

    most waxes are not pure these days..they either have patroleum disstilates, silicone, or some other synth in it..IDK MAN..if that's good for guitars, i doubt that would hurt a playfiled. But without trying it, I really don't know..just going off of some mates across the pond' that swear by it. Currently using Mcguires, and it's not high end by any means, but better than the formula 1 'Kit' wax I was using..but that wasn't bad either lol.
