My set came with a little plastic container of what looks like wax. What is that stuff, and what do I do with it?

I haven't tried to use it myself yet but my experience is with other kits of this sort is that should be a polishing compound to be used with the fiber polishing wheels. carefully try it as that if the need arises and my hunch is you'll find this to be the case.

Assuming they haven't changed what's in the kit since I ordered it, it should be a low-grit polishing compound meant to be used with the polishing pads.

I think its a small amount of polishing compound to be applied to the felt disk for buffing metal.

The wax is crystal clear when it's melted. Reusing it would contaminate the clean wax with sweat and dead skin cells. Not hygienic.

I really don't think it's sanitary to re-use any wax. I wouldn't want to go to somebody recycling wax.

I just wrap mine in wax paper! or ziplock, or eat them strait from the Pop Maker!

I agree with Buzz's answer: the wax looks like plastic, but the flickering is very nice. I put ours into paper luminaries so we can enjoy the light and never see the wax.

Hi Eve! There wasn't a clay-like substance around my spatula when I got it, it was just packaged in bubble wrap! I'm sorry I couldn't be of more help.

I have washed mine by hand. Soaked in hot water and sudsy cleaner to cut the wax build up, then just wash and rinse. I saved my old ones for emergency.

This was a gift, so I'm not sure. I believe guitar cleaner, polisher, wax. All I know is the person who received this from me was very happy with it.

The kit comes with muslin strips. While you may be able to wash them, I doubt you'll need to since there are enough strips in the package to match the amount of wax provided.

No, the wax container is made of metal, might explode. In case you decide to proceed with using microwave for heating of this wax anyway, please record video of the process and post it on the product page ;)

Our set had the normal new plastic smell, but I definitely would not call it toxic. Maybe your set got left in the sun or something waiting to be shipped. It's a really cool toy that your kids will love so I'd swap it for a new one if I were you.

like any wax you dont want to get it on any texture black plastic parts. If you do yo can use Goof Off to take it off and follow up with wiping 303 on it or some other protectant. The wax is long lasting but when taking it off you will get a good work out but the ending reults are nice and it will last.

Its parafin/wax binder..These are waxy looking and feeling. I am sure that is what holds their shape. And also the answer below ;)

The container is plastic, but dark brown. It has a code number of "7". I know that "7" means something, I just don't know what. I do know that this brand coconut oil was liquid when another brand that I had was still solid. I think this means something good... I'm just not sure what? I don't keep my oil long enough to worry about leaching, I don't think?

I agree with Alex....some kind of metal...they are not the plastic ones. I am still looking for the 1 piece metal for wide mouth jars if anyone finds them. I am using them for left over paint...what a great idea.

some kind of smooth plastic. they give a good set. My curls last pretty well in my very long hair.
