Millie,

I found my Microcrystalline Wax at the Arts and Crafts Shop. It is sold =
for the people who do Batik. Because it has a high melting point it =
tends to be brittle when cold. So those people who like lots of crazy =
lines in their dyed work mix it in with softer wax in varying degrees to =
control crackle patterns.

Hope that helps you trace the stuff.
