Lee Liquid Alox is so good that's about all I use on my cast bullets, but almost as good is plain Johnson's Paste Wax. You melt a little JPW (spoonful) and drip it over your bullets in a plastic bag. Knead the package until all the bullets are wet, and then spread them out on waxed paper until they are dry. Not just cooled, but DRY. A day or so. Done.

JPW and Alox are also good mixed together,I cooked the JPW down till most of the solvents is gone them mix an equal amount of Alox with it. Then you can either ranch dip,tumble lube or paint it on your cast bullets,which ever one suits your purpose.

This is the method I started using for all my TL bullets,I ranch dip my traditional grease groove bullets before I run them through the Lee sizer and it fills the grooves nicely.
