It is often semi-transparent and ranges in colour from black to yellow.
The commercial grades are numerous, ranging by letters from A (the darkest) to N (extra pale), superior to which are W (window glass) and WW (water-white) varieties, the latter having about three times the value of the common qualities.
At room temperature Pine resin is brittle, but it easily melts at slightly higher temperatures and is soluble in alcohol (to make a varnish) and mixed with bees wax and oil to make a wood polish

It is particularly useful on cleansers as it allows for dirt and oils to be lifted from the skins surface by water.
As Stearic acid is a waxy solid, it also helps to harden soap bars. This same property makes it useful for candles, adding firmness, a longer burn-time.

I use lanolin to make my son’s wool nappy covers waterproof. I’ve tried a few types. This stuff is my favourite. It’s not gritty and doesn’t smell bad like some others. Packed and sent quickly.
