I was on a website that dealt with British military regalia. On the site came a shoe polish kit for spit shinning [bulling] your shoes, included in the kit was a stick of bees wax. My dad taught me how to spit shine shoes [his police duty shoes] when I got into the U.S. Army all we used was what my dad taught me, polish, cotton balls or soft rag and water. What's with the bees wax - do they melt it on the polished shoe then rub it in or rub it on the shoe? How's it done?
I apologize for showing my ignorance on this matter - I just don't get the wax.
