I am researching microcrystalline waxes to help preserve metal artifacts and
have several questions.
First, what is the most economical type of application, wax, etc. I would
like to avoid using spirits to apply the wax if at all possible. Second, I
have a large amount of seriously corroded artifacts that will not stand up
to "wiping" the wax as a method of application. What is the most prefered
method of heating the wax-is the "hair dryer" approach acceptable or is it
better to dip the artifacts into a heated vat of wax?
Any help would be much appreciated, as well as anything else I may have not
have thought of.
Thanks.
