Fellers,
I've seen the recipe for "Pearl Lube" on a couple of forums and it calls for the use of a sticky wax toilet bowl seal. I've been trying to come up with something readily available at local stores that will improve my lube's "stickiness", so it clings to the lube grooves better when pan lubing. The last wax toilet seal I messed with (bathroom remodel) was VERY sticky, as in I had a heck of time getting it off my hands and clothes with the harshest of paint thinners and strippers. So it seems like it will fit the "sticky" requirement.
However, I think most of these things are now fully synthetic and don't contain real beeswax, although I didn't know whether that actually mattered, or whether or not that would ruin the recipe. I already add beeswax to my current lube recipe.
Have any of you folks made up Pearl Lube lately using one of these new rings?
