My blind, middle-of-the afternoon guess is that the suspension of the OXIDE
is what is varying. All I can think is that you might make up this OXIDE
mix with weighed out oxide and weighed out water and test. Also--try a
little, you guessed it, gum or glycerin in your oxide mix...

> I need help about a problem I am having with wax resist. I traditionally use Aftosa's brand and the majority of the time when I run the oxide over the dried wax resist, small beads of oxide stick to the wax. Other times, the oxide flows flawlessly, leaving no residue on the wax. I have studied the variables: drying time and thickness of the wax application and cannot find a consistent reason why sometimes the wax works and other times it does not. Aftosa was clueless when I asked for any help. Do anyone have any ideas about this?
