Sorry if this question has been answered somewhere else but I couldn't find it. I am wondering if there are diferent kinds of 'museum wax' with varying consistencies, and what are the diferences between them?
I'm using Quakehold's Crystaline Clear and I am perfectly fine with it so far. However here's the deal, at a miniature show I attended last year I bought some mini stuff that came packaged with freebie museum wax bits to hold them. At the time I thought nothing of it and just stored the packaged wax away since I had my own. Then yesterday while I was decorating I found the package and decided to try it, and to my surprise this wax was super solid to the touch until I heated it with my fingers a bit. It formed a really solid bond when dry that is way stronger than what I'm using at the moment, and now I really wish I had more of this stuff because it would be great to hold heavier stuff in place! I also makes less of a mess than my other wax when removing, when cold it looks almost like hot glue... in fact I almost thought it was hot glue when I touched it but it can't be, right?
I really would like to get a hold of this stuff but now I can't remember who gave me those samples. I would take pictures but honestly you'd have to touch it to understand the diference :s In any case, if you know a type of wax that fits this description please lemme know. Thanks!
