Ferris File-A-Wax carving waxes are the long-time choice of master carvers. These waxes can be sawed, carved, drilled, milled, or turned on a lathe. They burn out cleanly from molds, withstand rough handling, and will not soften in your hands. Approximate melting point: 240°F.
Note: Must be burned out of investment molds. Not for use in steam de-waxers.
