Anyone????Whats the pair of tights method??

So the wax just floats on top above the water??Another way that tights come in useful,if you have larger amounts of wax is..half fill burco boiler with water,boil water and add wax,this will then melt and float,heavy rubbish sinks. Use a old chip basket with tights over the outside,dip down into wax and use ladle to dip out clean wax from inside of basket into molds,i use 30lb buckets. If you have any really dirty stuff you can put inside of tights with a weight,then this will sink in the boiling water,and the wax will rise,minus the largest rubbish. This method makes large very clean blocks of wax,ready for exchange or whatever.
Thanks Poly Hive.Ok.
roughly.
Two baked bean tins.
Nip one, minus bottom and top, so it fits in the lower one. Tight material between. Rough wax in the top. Filters through the tights in gentle oven heat. Clean wax below. Or could use surgical gauze to better effect.
