Yah, from me! Who'da guessed?!?!?

Thinking (always a dangerous thing) while preparing for a trip ... if the furled leaders are furled with waxed thread, and that wax wears off after so many casts, rather than varnish (phew!), or even mucillin (icky, melty in can), would it work to run it through some bees wax?????? I have a slotted container of bees wax that I use for sewing and fly tying, and if it would work, I could easily throw it into my chest pack (not much else in it)(OK ... shut up!!).

What do you think? Will it work?
