Bohning Tex Tite Wax

An all natural based string wax which lubricates and lengthens string life and enhances string performance and helps prevent fraying.

A favorite of traditional archers using dacron string materials, like B-50, also the best choice when construction flemish twist bowstrings. 

Always be sure to include areas of the string that are served. This helps to keep the bowstring from seperating and preventing serving elongation.

While Tex-Tite is a natural based bowstring wax, Seal-Tite is a silicone based wax, but both work great in keeping your bowstring from drying out. Tex-Tite provides a "tacky" coating and Seal-Tite provides a "sticky" coating.

• To wax your string, firstly remove any contaminants such as dust, dirt and old wax from your bowstring. Clean off any dirt or grime build-up on your string with a clean, soft cloth. Waxing strings without first cleaning them will drive dirty wax deeper into the string, causing premature string wear and unwanted friction within the string.
• Then apply the wax stick up and down on all areas of the bow string and cable and include areas of the string that are served which helps to keep the bowstring from moving inside the serving and minimises wear.
• With your index finger and thumb, vigorously work the wax into the string and cable, going from one end to the other.
• Remove any excess or residual wax with a cloth.

Synthetic bowstrings and cables eventually fray from constant contact with each other or brushing against branches, long grass or reeds and other abrasive surfaces. To minimise fraying, it is highly desirable to regularly lubricate the string and cables with a liberal coat of string wax. If you ever inadvertently cut or nick a string with a broadhead or see visible fraying, replace the string immediately.

Well known bowhunter Tom Nelson says "Besides lubricating your bowstring and enhancing your string's life span, Seal-Tite and Tex-Tite waxes can also help keep broadheads and field points from coming loose while shooting. I like to dab a bit of wax on the threads of my points then screw them into the arrow. This keeps them tight, secure and also keeps threads from seizing up in your insert."
