Looking for Millable White wax that carves by hand nicely

[Carlos Robayo CDT]

Hello community.. I am looking for a good white wax for waxups that can be milled but also easily adjusted by hand carving.. I know hard to find the right balance.. please recommend the brand and name. We know the whole chat about plastic vs wax contents, etc.. Thanks a million..

Whip Mix life like....just a bit to much plastic, IMO.
TD Dental, a little better.
I have a disc of Sagemax white that I haven't tried yet, but if Ivoclar makes a white wax (I think they may only have blue and yellow?) and if it's anything like the blue, may be something to check into. Their wax is a bit pricey, though.

Hello Car 54, thank you for that.. let me know how the Sagemax wax is and I'll try TD as well as talk to Ivolcar.. thanks!

Thanks, but please also wait for others to chime in before you place an order, as they may have better suggestions. The Ivoclar blue is closer to a wax feel so far, for me, so hopefully they make a white.

Jensens white mills nice and can be carved, but Ive had to rubber wheel a slightly sharper edge on the carver.

Hello rc75, thanks for the info. Can the white one be carved by hand?? we mill them and then do touch ups with regular waxing tools..

Yes! Very easy to work with.

Biege wax from TD, Argen, Talladium and AP esthetics. Argen and AP will need to have a altered strategy so the wax doesn't melt to the burs, td and talladium seem to be more aryclic based but still very nice and easy to add and acrve to post milling.

I just found out that Jensen also has a white wax in a tin? for adding onto their milled wax for touch ups. I think their white wax disc only comes in 16mm, though?

Whip Mix Life Like discs also have tins of Life Like add on wax, at least the last time I ordered it. For light add-ons and touch ups it all kinda blends into each other, as I use the life like add on wax on top of TD Dentals milled white wax.

CAD wax patterns arent scaled, so a 16mm is the functional equivalent of a 20mm Zr.

Not enough?

 

[Car 54]

No, to much. I want a 12mm, also. Most of my milled wax ups only need 12mm, and 16 seems such a waste, esp at ~ $25.00 for the 16mm disc, compared to TD Dentals 12mm at $15.00

I honestly dont mind paying more for Jensens. Theyre providing me with tech support and are working to make me more money. They need to make a buck too.

 

[Car 54]

They have absolutely been a friend and an ally for you over the years, I completely understand.

I like the carvable milled wax from Argen, I use and extra puck to use for hand waxing.
