Q: What is this wax best used for?
It's intended for tool maintenance, including plane soles, machine tables and fences, where it reduces friction and inhibits corrosion.
05Z1601 - Veritas Tool Wax

This is the same wax formula as our Conservator's Wax, so if you already have a tin of that, you don't need this. Applied sparingly and polished to a sheen, the light, clear microcrystalline wax creates a barrier that inhibits corrosion and protects against moisture, airborne pollutants and finger marks.
At the same time, it will gently remove grime and wax build-up. When used on a plane sole, machine table or fence it reduces friction, allowing smoother movement of workpieces. Only a small amount needs to be applied for effective protection. 125ml (4.2 fl oz) in a metal container.
Made in Canada.
