sail maker's wax

[bshep714]

I read in a post that you can seal a humidor whith sail maker's wax. Wher can you get it? I've done some internet searches and have not found it yet. Can bee's wax be used instead? I assume regular parrafin might not work because of being petroleum based. I appreciate any help I can get.

Any marine supplier should have it. Any marine store dealing in sailboats WILL have it. Otherwise, Google is your friend.

Exactly where are you going to apply this was to? I'm no expert but I'm pretty sure that sailmakers wax is nothing more than beeswax with some tar mixed with it.

It sounds like beeswax is probably the ticket.
