[QUOTE="Trevor Gillbanks, post: 2899, member: 4"] I have fiddled with straining/filtering the recovered wax for several years. My current material is steel wool (steelo pads). I tear up the steel wool into little pieces and then drip the recovered wax through a small hole in the melter tray. Sometimes I put wax 2 or 3 times to get it clean. I still also use the water system to lighten the colour of the wax. Overly dark wax I use to make wood finishes or for waxing plastic frames. I was going to upload some photos but the new programme will not accept my photos (too large). Also will not go into the media section. Sorry. [/QUOTE]
