I have made some. It’s good but stinks so I added lavender oil to the second batch. Much better. 2 parts Tallow ( or use beef dripping) to one part wax and a splash of neatsfoot oil to keep it supple.

Thank you Danni :cheers2:
 
1:1:1 by volume melted wax, turps and linseed oil, makes a soft wax mix. You can halve the amount of linseed oil to make a slightly thicker mix, more like a furniture polish.
 
You’re quite right it is dubbin. I’m not making it for myself it’s for a friend who is an avid biker who is dissatisfied with the commercial sprays available.
