Home made dubbin????

[yomperalex]

Nowhere seems to sell dubbin anymore - in fact most of the shop assistants look a bit baffled at my request.

A google search hasn't really satisfied me, so any of you make your own?

I'm steering towards a mix of vegetable oil, bees wax and resin.

Any ideas as to ratios??

Violin resin appeared in one recipe I saw, could pine resin replace?

TIA

Alex
