Oh boy! A religious war about Brussels Sprouts.

Cheers,

mmm, Brussel Sprouts,
I now have an urge to listen to Richard Clyderman or Kenny G.

I don't mind brussel sprouts.

I get the impression that this glue/wax mess, free though it may be, will be far more trouble than it's worth (when you stop to remember the price.)

I eat a tremendous amount of Brussels Sprouts in the winter. I use the gas to heat the house. I don't mind BS, they can look after themselves. They're in the Grass Jelly, Birds' Nest Soup and Durian food group. If you need soup made from what some tubercular birds cough up, so be it.

The glue doesn't seem to want stick, so have a fair bit to get rid of.
Feel free to go on about Brussel sprouts tho'.

you will probably find it easier to dispose of if you can find a way to separate the wax from the glue without hurting the brussels sprouts

Easy to get rid of. Give it back to the people you got it from.
The "Save the Brussels Sprouts Society" will love you for it.

If you are determined to persist you probaly need to find out what sort of wax it is and how it is combined into the product.

Is it disolved in a solvent to make it mix in with the glue, if that is the case, drive off the solvent and the wax may seperate......but, have you then buggered the glue.

lots of products have wax in them for one reason or another...some of the polyester products have wax in them to make them flow.

Shelac comes with wax in its natural form and they go to a lot of trouble to get it out.

The other option, is can you use the stuff as intended, by pressing and heating the job.


or is it all just too much trouble.

cheers
