Problems with carnauba wax

[Kelly]

I generally use an oil and wax process on boxes. I use the Beall Buffing System.
Lately I am noticing some problems with the finish, specifically, the wax seems to blemish.
It seems that I read somewhere recently about problems with carnauba wax showing white spots.
Can anyone elaborate ?

I've experienced water spotting with the hard carnauba wax I got when I got the beal system. I switched to Mother's Car (carnauba) wax and have had no more issues.

Mother's is really good wax for both car and woodworking.

Do you use the paste? How do you apply it on the buffing wheel ?

 

[Dee2]

Paste, yes. I apply the wax to the object–bowl, vase, pen, etc.–let it surface dry (like waxing a car), and then buff it on the wheel

±1 on ditching the included carnuba wax that came with the system. Water will cause white spotting so it's no good for anything in the kitchen. I have been using beeswax.
