I am very happy to report that 2 yellow tubs of JPW came to me today via some friends that brought them back from their winter home in Florida.
They would not be able to bring me back a bigger thing ... like my diy power pro upgrade ... so I will have to go and pick it up myself.
I've got wax for a long while now. I may even use it on my kitchen floor after I clean and wax the Mark V.
JPW not available in Canada.

As a way of saying that JPW will go a long way... the container I will soon empty completely is a glass jar...
I have another part of a glass jar and part of a metal can. I'm not up to a plastic can yet
It works great on dried out antique furniture too.

I got some at Home Hardware (NOT Home Depot) in White Rock, B.C. Look for the old-timer hardware stores, not the big box stores.

I will checked again ...
I am familiar with Home Hardware Stores
We watch CTV and see Mark Cullen often on Canada AM and also on adds for the nice little chain of stores. There must be 5 or 6 in Quebec City but often we have to order.
I just remember having their catalogue on hand, I have looked and it is not there.
I have two tubs now, I do not think I will be out soon. Like Robinson said, it goes a long way.
Thanks anyway, I will phone, I have some friends who would like me to share with them and I said no way.

There is a reason that the 'original' differs and why(AIUI) it is not available 'up nawth'.
That slick attribute we so admire for the way tubes is an accident waiting to happen when used as a floor wax.

I think the world expects us to use moose grease, or some such thing. I'm just sayin'
By the way, a small rant on the L.A. Kings (hockey, and I'm from Vancouver area)... A local wag says "Rooting for the L. A. Kings is like rooting for the guy who stole your girlfrined".

That is for flat landers that raise corn.
Ever hear that 'song' that goes - "I plowed too deep - on a hill too steep - and the whole damn thing washed away". Then the song follows his field all the way to the gulf by way of tug fork, big sandy, ohio and mississippi waters. No, it ain't relevant.

Just the opposite of flat.

Yep! "The guy that stole your girlfriend" now is in possession of that great big silver Stanley Cup. Who'd of thunk LA would be a Hockey town??? Some of us could only hope so.
8th seeded, beating the top three seeded teams of the Western Conference. Then More! Another low seeded Eastern team (NJ) gave the Kings their best - hardest series. Got to hand it to the Kings! They finally got their names on the cup after 45 years! Their last time being in the finals was 1993.
Also a big thanks to the 12 Canadians on the team.
