Friends,

What are the current thoughts on using Butcher's Wax on wood furniture in
the collection.  We have several cans of the stuff, and I'm wondering if
they still need to be kept on hand.  Is it still considered good for use on
clean finished surfaces or not?  I am sure the opinions received will vary
from yea to nea, and everywhere in between.  I can pretty well predict what
some will say.  I am not just looking for yes and no answers, but some real
constructive advice on it's properties, merits, and disadvantages.

TIA

HBC
