Have you tried dissolving the wax in natural turpentine? You’ll need to do in a bath of hot water, obviously, to avoid a fire. I find it soaks in more quickly. For a harder finish you can add a bit of carnauba wax.

I wonder if that would work for diy waxed canvas as well..
Previously I've found the process of rubbing solid wax and heating it afterwards to be quite labourintensive and quite difficult to achieve full and even saturation.

What sort of beeswax polish?
I use my own recipe of 1 part natural beeswax to 2 parts organic mineral oil, never had any issues with it other than it takes ages to seep in before I rub down to polish.
