It is a common misconception that Johnson's Paste Wax is discontinued.
ONLY in some stores.
If your local store no longer carries it you can buy it direct from SCJohnson here

Johnsons Paste Wax Is Still Available in the US

I got mine last year at either HD or Lowes.
This is more in response to a comment that it was no longer available in another post. I do know that it is not as widely available any more in some areas and that some people cannot find it. I saw it last week at Lowe's.
praise of it in this ng, nice price. I used it to double coat my plane blades, but with a lot of handling with sweaty hands while sharpening, it becomes tacky and seems to loosen off. I wonder if there is such a polishing wax that does not do that...?
You know that TopCote that is always mentioned? ;~) I use it on my hand tools, cast iron surfaces, any thing that needs a bit of a slippery surface or light lubrication. I use it on the gears under my TS.

Yep! Not the place for paste wax or a big gob of grease.
Did they Ban it? I recalled it being banned, but not where.
I have found it recently in my local Ace hardware store.
