Shoe polish is made up of what type of charcoal

Answer 1

Answer:

It is usually made from ingredients including some or all of naphtha, lanolin, turpentine, wax (often Carnauba wax), gum arabic, ethylene glycol, and if required a colourant, such as carbon black or an azo dye (such as aniline yellow).

Answer 2

The paraffin wax was purified by melting over water three times. The wax was finally skimmed off and placed in a clean beaker. The shoe polish was formulated in accordance to the procedure earlier on, used in the production of shoe polish from carbon black.
