[QUOTE="Charley Scanlan, post: 593126, member: 5598"] I heard back from Meerschaum Market, and he said the white is actually the natural meerschaum color. The beeswax exaggerates or "triples" the color from smoking but it doesn't stain the meerschaum, so it turns white. The dark parts will come out more and more over months of smoking. His name was Burak, which I assume is a Turkish name, and he said this was normal for beeswax to do this. Phew! I did use a Dremel tool on a cracked meerschaum I waxed, with different accessories. It's a fun tool to have, I might use the felt buffers on pipes. I have mineral oil, and I have briar wax. Probably just do a dry buff on the meers. Thanks for your suggestion Bali, and any others you might have. 🙂 [/QUOTE]
