Bob Harrison asked:

>Was it WAXED Pierco?

I've used only waxed.  After seeing comments on this list about un-waxed plastic frames & foundation I was afraid of even trying it.  I've used both waxed white Pierco frames and waxed Rite Cell sheets from Mann Lake.  If I headed all of the aforementioned caveats I had no problems.  I only had acceptance problems when there was a marginal flow.

I bought some waxed black Dadant Plasticell at a conference recently, which I'll try next season.

Happy Holidays!

Take care,
