You're welcome! :thumbup:

Just bear in mind the wax might turns softer when your body temperature warms it up in your pocket :)
 
You could put some in a chap stick tube and get that stunning wet look on your lips, too.
:laughing:
 
I wonder if an empty deodorant tube would work? I don't see why not.

I read about doing this and saved an empty one.
Will try it! Gently 'nuke' it , pour and let it cool? What cha' think.
 
Thank you for sharing! This is cool. :dblthumb2:
I used cheaper wax just for the test drive,
put my little twist on the creation and did this in the time it took to brew a pot of Coffee
this morning. I took pic's along the way if this interests others.
 
I just took my tubs of Nanoskin Hydrophobic and Meguires Gold waxes and scooped them in to 2 zip lock backs, and tossed them in the sink with hot tap water, and it softened them plenty to squeeze them into the empty and cleaned deodorant sticks.

I wish the sticks would allow me to fill them all the way and not have a block halfway down them.

After squeezing them in to the tubes, I put saran wrap over it, and capped them, let them set for about 4 hours, then put them in the garage at ~50*F . They came out great. I will put them to use at some point.
