Make your own homemade Car Wax

Here is a recipe to make your own car wax. To avoid over drying whilst waxing, just wax your car one section at a time.

To make enough for 1 waxing

• 8oz/225g carnauba wax
• 2 tablespoons yellow beeswax
• 16 floz/450ml turpentine
• 1 tablespoon pine oil

In a double boiler, heat the carnauba wax and beeswax. Stir, then leave to cool until the mixture just starts to harden. Stir in the turpentine and pine oil. To use, dip a rag into the mixture, rub onto the car’s surface and then polish with a soft cloth.
