Being in the UK, I am wondering if paraffin would do a useful job.
Have you tried kerosene?

I assume you are referring to paraffin wax or candle wax.

I don't know how far around the world these various names go but the
thought of someone's workshop exploding as a result of following this

Don't forget the internet is worldwide and the UK's influence runs

We are both at fault. If we said paraffin wax and you said paraffin oil,
nobody would be confused. As much.
