RECIPE
ONE PART = ¼ POUND BY WEIGHT. (I use a postage scale I bought at Office Depot)
6 Parts BeesWax
1 Part Murphie’s Oil Soap
1 Part Pure Neats Foot Oil (PURE Neats Foot Oil, NOT Neats Foot Oil Compound)
1 Medium sized eye dropper Peppermint Oil (helps make lube more pliable without lowering melting temperature)
1 Part LubeGard.
Melt wax in double boiler, add other ingredients and mix well. Do not allow to boil. If you want lube to be more resistant to ambient temperature (as in the hot summer time) increase the proportion of wax. Pour into mould (I use cheap flexible plastic ice cube trays). FOR DOMESTIC TRANQUILITY IT IS STRONGLY SUGGESTED YOU GO TO WAL MART AND GET YOUR OWN DOUBLE BOILER.
