Hi everybody!
I have been wondering what the differences are between using columbus wax, which is seen with a lot of Japanese leather workers and with regular beeswax. I am mainly wondering what the benefit/advantage is for edge finishing with this wax: melting, polishing, etc.
Thank you for any help on this subject!
I was wondering the same thing. I have seen on youtube people just rubbing the colubus wax stick on the edge of a project. It's unclear how much you need to rub as it applies nearly invisibly. I rub each side about 20 times and go over it with a wood slicker and canvas. I see nearly no difference in appearance whether I apply the wax or not.
