Morticians wax formula?

taken from a forum: get some microcrystaline wax (monster makers sells it), vaseline, and some translucent face powder... basically all you need to do is melt the wax down (i used a washed out pop can with the top cut off that i pu in a pan of water) that's only because i didnt want to trash my good pots. combine the wax and vaseline in there about equal ammounts of each. heat until it melts completely, then add some powder. keep stirring it until it starts to solidify. you might want to make a small ammount first to get the bugs out. if its too soft, add more wax, if its too firm add more vaseline.

Why does wax harden so fast?

Wax hardens quickly because it has a low melting point and cools rapidly when exposed to air or a cooler surface. The cooling process causes the molecules in the wax to solidify and form a hardened state.
