i recently bought some johnsons floor wax. it's in a yellow tin. is that the right stuff or not. it doesn't say future on it at all. it's a wax and it's kinda brownish/yellow. i hope it's the right stuff b/c it was $5

The Johnson's floor wax used for modelling is an acrylic liquid wax. In the U.S. it is called FUTURE. It is almost clear. I do not know what tradename it is in other parts of the world.
