I am interested in a recipe for waterproof shoe polish. It requires 4 oz
beeswax, 4 oz resin, 1 pt linseed oil, 1/4 pt turpentine. Has anyone
any ideas for obtaining the resin. Being a Scot I am unwilling to pay
for this. Can you obtain the resin from pine trees and if so by what
method? I have tried to cut the bark of Scots pines but I think I would
be there till doomsday trying to get 4 ozs!
