Troubleshooting
The wax is too thick to apply.
The wax may have thickened due to solvent evaporation. Store containers in a cool area with bungs or tightly closed to avoid evaporation. You may need to replace the product.
The wax doesn't seem to be covering the surface adequately.
Ensure you are applying a sufficient amount of wax using your chosen method (spraying, brushing, dipping). The low viscosity aids spread, but adequate coverage is essential.
The wax is not drying properly.
Check the application environment. Ensure adequate ventilation. The drying time may vary depending on environmental conditions (temperature, humidity).
