Salix Bat Wax

What's the skinny with this product?

Is it any good, and is it any better, or easier to apply than ordinary bat oil?

from my limited experience it's easier to apply, reducing the chance drastically of over oiling the bat....plus if you want your bat to appear all shiny it buffs up nicely.

Works pretty well although I'm not sure its worth paying extra for against standard oil, i got mine in a sale so i was happy although I'm not sure id buy more.

Got a tub of it here and im not that keen really. it does dry faster and its probably a little easier to apply but whats wrong with buying a couple of litres of good old oil at a fraction of the price. much better imo

Ive got some, its not all its lived up to be!
Gives quite a good finish but pretty pricey for just linseed oil in a different state...

I like it, simple and cleaner than oil to use, price very steep but they do need make money.

with out wanting to stir the pot, but if price is no issue, why don't you buy the bat with the stickers on that you want...?

If you want to apply stickers after either oil or Bat wax they will not stick well.

Hamps10 - you're right for £5 it would be worse than a plank... I missunderstood your "price is no issue" comment..
