No, I'm not referring to a woman's skin.

I'm one of those who likes to add a fresh coat of wax to both the wood and exterior metal finish on my hunting rifles when storing them away after the end of the season.

This is the best wax I've found for the job because it protects without leaving them slippery and more difficult to handle. In fact, it leaves behind a beautiful finish that actually grips better and doesn't leave obvious fingerprints.

I’ve used Johnson’s furniture wax successfully as well.

when searching this looks to be the same stuff a lot cheaper. I searched up micro crystalline wax and this came up. Looks like both are made from the same stuff.
