  wrote:I had heard that before and decided to run a small-scale test of  my own this past summer.  At the end of the period, I compared the  two samples. If there was any lightening in color, it was not  perceptible to the naked eye.

  Mike,  Good initial test.  I shall try another test this next  summer (If I can remember).  I think though that you have to get  the wax into a thin film for the bleaching effect of the sun to  work.  But....  That will be a test for another day.
  Thanks for the feedback.   Mike located in lower Alabama (Sun's hotter down here).
