I got my order for Nattys paste wax BOGO this week. The 90+ weather made my paste into a watery mess. Anyway to get it to repaste? Or just use it like 845?

shake it up well then put it in a bucket of cold water for 10 minutes

reminds me of an amusing aside:

I had some mother's carnauba in the 5.5 inch can that was used mostly by hand so it was down to the metal on the bottom of the can but there was plenty on the sides.

Stuck it in the warm oven after I roasted a chicken and turned it off. Forgot about it until the next morning and when I opened the oven got the yummiest smell of chicken and carnauba! The wax was back to normal and even all around the can. Now I can stick my entire pad in there and evenly get some wax...

Maybe stick it in the fridge for a few hours?.

Thanks Tim, I was head to the fridge with it. I'll try the aqua bath first.

You think this is hot? Wait till next week. I've put all waxing off for a couple of weeks.

Fridge and bucket of ice water did nothing. Just going to pour some on a pad and try it.
