Paraffin wax.... I know your sick of the questions but... - 01-07-09, 07:36 PM

i have considered investing in a paraffin wax bath for my new mobile buisness bt apart from being expensive im mobile in the sense that i take the bus or walk with my trolley and table at the moment lol!
i noticed people discussing mobile paraffin heaters and when i looked them up they look exactly like my wax heater, which i never use now sue to the heater being good and the wax being rubbish....

... is it possible i can use this to heat my wax and paint it on my clients???

this is what i have,

Hi

I have a babyliss wax heater that fits the standard wax pots in and i have paraffin wax in the same size pots so just use was heater to melt it as i would regular wax and paint straight onto client. Never had any problems!

I have a salon system wax heater. It doesnt have a place where I can just pour the wax in. The wax comes in a pot and you take the lid off and heat it up. I got this one as you can also buy the paraffin wax pots to go in there. I also paint mine on.
Looking at your pot,as long as you get another inner bucket to put your paraffin wax in then it will do the trick xxx
