    Goddard's saddlers wax tin. Two Kiwi parade gloss. Three Carr and Day and Martin shoe polish. Not sure the year these were made.

      These are really great! Not sure how old these all are. Kiwi hasn't changed the design of their cans as long as I can remember. I still buy Kiwi Parade Gloss today and the cans still look the same. Very cool!

      If you read the ingredients that are prevalent today, you will find that most are basically carnauba wax. From there we think, "What is the most economical source?" To date, I've found it to be "Boat Mold Release Wax". Stuff is a hell of a lot easier & faster than French-polish on furniture. Try it. (Taught to me by a Dutch furniture maker).
