I've been using Q Wax (carnauba) to clean and maintain my shafts for a few years now, with pretty good results. I'm an advocate of using only natural products for my cues. Well, I ran out of Q Wax a couple of months ago, and I started to look for an alternative.
Here's what I use now. I thought I'd share it with you guys.
This is some good stuff. Described as... Lord Sheraton Pure Beeswax Balsam is the easy way to protect and enhance the natural beauty of wood. A blend of pure refined beeswax, cold pressed linseed oil and pine turpentine gives it a unique buttery consistency that spreads easily and polishes instantly.
If you try some, rub it directly in to the shaft and buff immediately. It removes chalk buildup quite well. Don't apply it and let it dry as you would in waxing a car, for example. If you do, it gets REALLY sticky and difficult to remove.
