While taking the MiL out for mother's day this weekend, I ran across a
bee's wax product I have never seen before or tried. Shop owners said
they've used it on everything for years and love it. I stood there
reading the label and found a few oddities.

Label Link:

1. No list of ingredients.
Odd but ok. Maybe it is nothing but bee's wax but I doubt it.

2. Says great on Antiques, Furniture, Oak and more.
But the warning says, "Do Not Use on Wood". Say what?

I read it and then querried the shop owners, who were shocked when
they read the label. Apparently they never read it before. One owner
has been using the stuff for over 25 years.

Never ceases to amaze me what people miss on a daily basis.

So is it just bee's wax or more? Or only legal CYA jargon?

Figured if the owers were still standing after decades of use, can't
be too unsafe. Both owners were pretty antique themselves.


It says "Old world formula" so that implies there are ingredients.
Here is says "with natural bees wax" so it may be only 1%.

May be good stuff but they certainly exploit the bees.
