We offer several different types of wax with different melting points and
requiring different solvents.  All waxes clean off very well.  Of particular
interest will be our MWH135 mounting wax which has a melting point of about 135
C and is soluble in acetone.  Our MWM100 is a Black Wax that melts at about 100C
and is resistant to most etching solutions.  It can be removed with hydrocarbon
or chlorinated solvents.  If you have an interest, I would be pleased to discuss
this off-line and send you samples of the various waxes we have.
