Wax will seal the call great and looks supper for a finish, that is until you get it damp or wet from rain. Then it turns a dull white finish and becomes very rough to the feel. If you looking for a good sealant and finish, put a coat of light wax on first and polish it out, then put a couple coats of clear on over the wax. That seals the wood and gives the call a great look that will last.
