Is this wax easy to melt? Will it work in molds?

It melts very easily and will work well with molds. It seems like a lot of wax, but it doesn't go far. Also, I tried wax that came in a block and that is extrely difficult to melt. These chips work way better!

No-Tweeze sells a melter unit, but I never bought one. I just scraped some out of the metal container and put it in a sturdy plastic container to use in the microwave. The friend who originally used it on me just kept it in an old whipped butter container. It wasn't easy for me to get the hard wax out of the metal container originally, but you can reuse what you scrape out several times, so it's worth the effort. Hope this helps.

I have not used that particular wax but it does work really well and melts the thick cream wax that i use.

it melts at a lower temperature than paraffin - so it should work well .. but I haven't tried

Yes it is a hard wax, and you can use waxing strips but it does have to be fairly hot for it to work well. I ended up not using strips just because it was faster.

Yes, you want to place the whole tin in the warmer. Only warm it on low because otherwise it will mess up the wax. Give it a try. It works great!!

Once it's been baked, it should hold up fine to melted wax without changing shape.

I don't know why not! You probably wouldn't even have to spray the mold. These are very popular molds for those fanatical dog lovers (including me!). If it didn't work out for you, you can always sell it on Amazon.com. But I don't see a problem pouring hot wax into them and letting them cool and popping them out. Good luck!

I said no at first--but saw other people saying "most likely" so I filled one up with water and left it over night, on the counter - IT WORKS! I guess this means soup can also go in, just not hot as I am sure that would melt the wax coating.

It has worked for my votives and they are beeswax. It burns beautifully. A friend recommended to wax them first but I've seen good results either way.

Kathleen I bought this spool and it is not waxed, I make candles and have to wax all of my wicks. Sounds like a cool project you are doing, I hope it works.Val

I have added parrafin directly to the hot wax every time it needs to be added and never had a problem. The new parrafin will melt much more quickly in the hot wax.

No, it won't last long. Use collinite insulator wax. It's a type of polymer that last.

I broke up the wax and put it in the container and plugged it in on high. I had no instructions either that I can recall. I was perplexed by the oval plastic piece and someone told me it goes on the bottom under the wax. I didn't use the gloves at all. Once melted the first time it seems to melt much quicker. I suppose I will drop the plastic in when I melt it again.

Sorry I don't know the actual temperature. Suffice to say that once the wax has melted on high, it is too hot to immerse your hand. Usually I would turn the temperature to medium and let it cool a little bit while still staying liquid.

No,it's not. actually,u can warm it up in microwave but wax will get firm in a short time.u will have to go back to microwave many times before u finish waxing a large area. If u need to wax a small area then it could be warmed up in microwave easily.
