A great many years ago, as a summer job, I worked for a Pep Boys store
in Glendale. They sold a pint can of "car wax" in liquid form with big
letters "Carnuba Wax". Well, it was a suspension of waxy like materials
that one would apple, let film over, then polish out with cheese cloth.
Wasn't a bad product, BUT they also had some REAL carnuba wax for demo
purposes.
This was an entirely different animal, looking like a bar of yellow
soap, with hardening of the arteries. You could rub it on the counter
top, and polish it out. However, it was almost impossible to use in
that form.
But, it really did shine on a Bakelite counter surface.
The modern products seem to need a power tool to polish it out, and
should only be done after you've learned how to apply and buff it on a
car you don't care about. ;-)
It may need re-buffing after some exposure and weather.
Here are some sources of the "Griot's Garage" products:
