I fortunately just bought some Johnson’s so I’m probably good till I croak.
But another wax to consider is Briwax , which I tend to use on antique furniture. It requires more buffing to get a sheen and is a more satiny sheen than Johnson’s. It also comes in tinted varieties which will hide scratches better ( I have brown and black). I sometimes use tinted if I want to accentuate open grains. Just make sure to first use a coat of the clear first. Applied directly to raw wood, the tinting is pretty strong.
