[Jewelry making - Article 00886] - [Orchid] Disclosing wax

    I've been experimenting with using disclosing wax to improve some
    waxes taken from some very old, deteriorating molds (I don't have the
    original models). My goal is to get smoother castings so that I can
    make a new mold of those designs. Anyway, I like the way that
    disclosing wax smooths things out, but I soon found that there are
    lots of tight places on these designs where my fingers don't fit. 
    And steel wax tools didn't seem to apply the wax very smoothly. What
    else might work to apply disclosing wax in tight spots?
