Wax substitute

[switchington]

just a quick question. i'm in england and because the council can't cope with the snow i can't go to the town to get some rail wax for the jib i made in my garden!

are there any day to day/household products that might have a similar effect?

 

[Joe_Brogan]

try rubing a candle on the jib or spraying some cooking spray on it

This sounds strange, but it really works.
Take honey, mix it with vinegar, rice, a little blue cheese, and some tomatoes. (You can throw in some croutons if you have them - they really fill scratches well)
Boil that mixture to approximately 165 degrees F.
Cool it overnight in the freezer and then scoop it out on your bases.
Take a lighter and melt the mixture a bit and then use cork or whatever your liking is to smooth it out over the surface. Scrape off the excess.
