Pirastro Peg Wax

This wax is very hard (it seems graphite based) and because of this hardness it was tricky to apply at first. In the end, with gental rubbing to the necessary surfaces, it applied satisfactorily and improved peg action dramatically.

Four stars for quality because the contents of the first tube was cracked in the middle on arrival, suggesting that it may be somewhat brittle. Naturlich Thomann sent a replacement out which arrived intact; great customer service!

There are many people that complain about their violins pegs and the tuning. Sometimes even blame the violin as a bad made, a defect just because doesn't keep in tune or the pegs are hard to manipulate. But a good set of strings and a good peg wax can make a BIG difference. I highly recommend it .

this paste is clearly based on graphite so it doesn't leave grease remains like others. Actulaly experienced a very nice and smooth grip of the peg.
Plus, a very long lasting effect.

My pegs were very sticky before but after purchasing this, changing the strings and applying this 'soap' the pegs run very smoothly now.

Nothing complex here, good quality peg wax to help the pegs move in the pegbox with ease but not make the pegs too slippy.

When I had it from the postal services I was a little bit angry because the wax was broken, but as I started using it I've been very satisfied.
I use it both on the violin pegs, and on the viola pegs and on the nyckelharpa pegs too and it always works good.

Does what it is supposed to do.
