Processing
The wax is melted at a temperature of 80 ° C and poured into a mold that already has a face coat made out of slush casting or brushable wax. After a short period of solidification the "still-liquid" wax is poured out thus building a layer. This process may be repeated a number of times until the desired thickness is reached.

Avoid at all times that the wax is heated to above 100 ° C. If this is done, this can have a lasting effect on the properties of the wax.

This back up wax comes in the form of small pellets the size of a pea and is packaged in bags of 1 kg.
