Have you vr droped hot paraffin from a candle over your arm?
It causes pain, yes.
Little but does.
The challenge here was not the pain itself but the appearing of different digital patterns, differing from the mediumīs, Leon.
Sometimes even a female hand out of a psychic womanīs.
I saw the paraffin gloves by myself and became part of some groups.It was aserious society at that time.
I donīt know if it still is.

Actually, paraffin wax, as a composite material containing different types
and contents of oils, pigments, hardeners, etc., can be quite variable with
respect to melting point and even the lowest temperature at which it softens.
Some paraffin's, therefore, can soften around 90-95^ F and have melting points as
low as 110-120^ F. So, such melted paraffin would not be hot enough to cause
much pain when a hand is inserted. When cooled and hardened at room
temperature, the 98^ F temperature of the hand would be high enough to soften the wax
and allow the hand to be pulled out easily -- distorting the inside of the
paraffin -- as shown by the casting made afterward when the wax cooled and
hardened again.
