Under my balls I run a ox-yoke wad that comes pre-lubed with wonderlube and a sp12 rem plastic under that. Gives me a good seal, proper height and a little more lube. I know wonderlube isn't the best so after I run out of these I will make my own saturated wads. Will definitely try the beeswax/Vaseline and I have some of my own concoction I am going to try. It is 80% olive oil, 10% beef tallow, 10% beeswax. My old leatherworking mentor taught me to stir this stuff up and it is great stuff, a soft solid at room temp. Good for leather and skin and hope it works on wads too.
