garypl Report post Posted May 29, 2018 Went to the local TJ Maxx/Homegoods store with my wife and while waiting for her to complete her purchase I found these two storage containers and immediately thought how I could use them in m6 shop. The mason jar with pump I am using to dispense NFO. It’s made for soap, so it has no problem with the NFO. I was always pouring oil from the quart bottle into a tuna can or other small bottle. Now I just give a quick push and have oil ready to apply. I also had a tuna can filled with my leather treatment (beeswax, carnuba wax, NFO, Lexol mixture) and it was open on my bench and always getting dust and lint in it. Now I put the wax mixture in the sealable jar and it’s easy to grab some with my fingers. The shallow depth makes it easy to access as it gets low on wax! Total cost for both was $8 plus tax.

Getting close to having to make more. The harder wax I use I have to line egg cartons with plastic wrap to get the liquid to set. It's more of a shoe polish consistency. I use it on my edges. The softer stuff I use as part of my finish on holsters. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
