Hi Jonathan and Ya'll;
 
Joanthan asks: ..."also i was wondering if anybody new how to lighten,
dark colored wax ??"
 
For small quantities of darkened wax, the easiest and least expensive
method to lighted the color is repeated exposure in a solar wax melter,
the disadvantage is also the loss of fragrance.  If the wax was 'burned'
from excessive heating this method will have no effect.
