Go to a local Honey store, they will have it. ( I use beeswax for my Black Powder bullet lube.) (other hobby is cowboy Action shooting)

Not to doubt the advice you got, but why would you use something like bees wax when there is a proven product like Never Seize on the market?
You can get it at any auto parts store, it is inexpensive, it is approved by all the OEM's and it is compatable with almost anything.

The bees wax is for self tapping or threaded screws into fiberglass or wood.

Much better than getting anti-seeze in your fiberglass...can be purchased at Sporting Good Stores. Used in the Archery Business for string and cable wax.

using wax on threads is one of the oldest tricks in the book. any wax will work fine. you can also use wax for cutting aluminum with a hacksaw or an electric jigsaw.it keeps the teeth from clogging. or use it on a thread tap. try it youll be amazed. later, brian
