Make sure it is fully cured. Check whatever car wax you plan on using. Lots of car wax has polish and uv protection in the mix that could make getting the wax back off if you ever needed.
I like using the John’s floor paste wax and a can is $6 for a lifetime supply.

I don't know what is in tru oil or if there are any drying accelerants, but if there are I'd wait at least a week before going over it with anything.
If it is just oil and a colorant.....could be months.

Truoil is a polymizer...I believe linseed oil and maybe one other ingredient but maybe just linseed oil.

Tru-Oil instructions state that it's okay to apply wax after finishing. I never have, because one of the attractions of an oil finish is the ability to rub more in if necessary to cover small handling blemishes. Or, to give you something to do while you sip your bourbon during a pandemic. And, I'm not sure how to remove the wax before rubbing in more oil.

Yes you can! Have used Truoil and wax for years.
Get some Renaissance Wax. It’s expensive but the best. A little goes a long way.

I used to use paste wax and it is all good, definitely true. When I started using the Renaissance, I really fell in love with it. So good and such a tiny amount goes so far that the little container last forever. Have a good one Nathan.
