Is there a rule of thumb how much wax to add to dry dirt? I have been drying it and now it is time to start adding wax but when do I know that I have added enough? Or too much?
I have nothing clever to put here.

3 cups to 4 gallons black loamy soil,2 1/2 cups to 4 gallons in sandy/dirt soil,this works well for me Rob.Hope you and Logan have a great season. Thank you! The stuff he brought up is pretty sandy. We had it spread out of plastic on the snowmobile trailer for a few days and have been turning it so I think it is about ready. The 90 degrees and wind helps dry it fast.
