I tumble small Beech parts with a powdered wax and certain styles of the
parts get damaged on corners and edges due to the length of time required to
get an even coat of wax. With liquid wax on rags in the tumbler, the parts
take less time, don't get damaged and look even better. I'd like to find a
source for 55 gal drums of inexpensive wax.

Look on the label of a liquid was for the manufacturers name. Call them.
I'd start with S C Johnson to see if they have an industrial division.

Check with a janitorial service. I had a couple of uncles in that
business; I know they got wax in 55 gallon drums. Those drums with the tops
cut off made really good ground feed storage bins when I was farming.
