When the stock is out, there will be no more. The company has stopped production. I posted about this last year that it will probably not be manufactured anymore. If you like it then buy a few to last.

I've had mine since the late 90's, use it a lot, it's still fullish
Maybe why there closing down!?

Oh no! I love this stuff! Thanks for the heads up. I will definitely stock up next time I am shopping! So sad to hear of yet another company closing as well.

Just to help those who will not find this in the future. I have found beeswax cheap on Amazon. Beeswax is what people used before all the nifty inventions to condition thread. I keep mine in a sandwich baggie, with my needle threaders, to keep it clean. One piece will last me the rest of my life. Every so often, I remelt it so the edges do not chip off. I just pour the hot wax into a cupcake tin, with a liner, and when it cools I just peel off the paper and keep using it.

I just bought Thread Magic at Joann. It is in a round container with notches to guide the thread. I looks like Thread Heaven but it works much better. I was working on handquilting and it seems to glide through much better.

Madamekelly...thanks for the hint on refreshing beeswax......

also, maybe that new product is made by same company as a replacement for discontinued one?

a lot of machine companies recommend not to use it on machine thread, especially the newer machines, it messes with the machines. I use wax when I'm doing hand work but that's it. Not taking any chances. Too much money invested in my machines

Can't see how it would be used on machine. Have to pass thread piece thru it ....for hand sewing only.....

There was an online class I wanted to take but but never did. It was machine sewing with metallic thread and machine embroidery. It was a gorgeous wall hanging. They recommended putting a small piece of mole skin on your machine just above the needle and putting Thread Heaven on it. It was supposed to keep the metallic thread from shredding and breaking. I haven't tried it. It did sound like a good idea.

I got an email about the suppler going out of business and this as a replacement. There's a diagram showing how to use the conditioner. Don't know if I will try it or not on my machine.
