Some hardware and auto supply stores sell wax and grease remover used in the auto body repair trade. Should do the trick

Re: Wax,oil,grease, what lubricant?
I still prefer Johnsons paste wax in the yellow can with the red stripe on it. I was running out and was concerned about the future availability of it because Johnson was going to remove it from the market place. I scored a can at my local Ace hardware store and now I have a lifetime supply. But I w...

Re: Chisels
Try the AAW website and look up their beginning section for woodturning. They have very good instructions on their site. https://www.woodturner.org/default.aspx

Re: Sanding Disk Set Screw
I just checked my two factory sanding discs and they both have the flat end set screw.

Re: Turning Peppermills
Look to Penn State Woodturning for pepper mill kits. They are presumed leaders for that sort of thing
They also have all the accessories that you will need

Re: Urethane Bandsaw tires
A friend of mine asked me to help him install urethane tires on his bandsaw and when I tried to stretch them on to the rims they both broke. They would not stretch enough to get them over the rims. I was going to get a set for my bandsaw but opted for the rubber tires instead. Glad I did. In my mind...

Re: Sharpening Guide
I have gone through many variations of sharpening guides and was never satisfied with any of them including the Shopsmith one. I finally settled on a Rikon slow speed grinder with the Wolverine sharpening system mounted on a tool cabinet from Harbor Freight Tools. Keeps the tools organized and clean...

The towel is black when I wipe the wax off. I let the wax dry and wax again in the normal manner. The tables ...
