I would ask Don what he prefers, as he has already applied something to it. Stick with that.

I don’t wax them before I send them out. I coat them is pure silicone oil.
Use any wax that liquifies when it’s rubbed with your finger. The preference is a wax with silicone but it’s not super necessary. Bohning has a couple of good waxes. BCY puts out something called ML6.
The best time to wax a string is when your done shooting. It gives the wax time to migrate into the string. Just use enough to make the string and serving look wet. You don’t want to coat the string or serving. Don’t forget to wax the loops on occasion.
