Hi all,
I made some lube at home. It consisted of:
1 pound of beeswax
one, 14 ounce tube of lithium/moly grease from the auto parts store
2 tablespoons of Johnson's Paste Wax.
I have a Star with their heater base. Much to my chagrin this homemade lube is still stickey and soft.
What should I add to it to stiffen it up and/or increase its melting temperature?
Also, I was surprised at how soft the JPW was. Should I like melt that down on its own to get rid of any solvents? Or just leave the lid off and hope they evaporate on their own?
Thanks!
