Wet specimens with wax top
Please note: If your container has a wax top, it will be shipped with the alcohol, bagged and wrapped for safety to keep the alcohol sealed in the container.
The wax seal helps prevent leakage and adds cool, finished look. If you need to replace the alcohol, the seal can be easily peeled away. Put the wax in a small microwave safe container, melt it in the microwave, dip the top in to reseal or you will have to purchase your own wax to reseal it again. Refill ONLY with 70% Isopropyl alcohol. The fluid in the jar will darken over time, that is natural and if you would like to change the fluid follow the following instructions on removing the specimen to change the fluid.
If choosing to remove the specimen follow these precautions:
* These are not for Human or Animal consumption; product is not alive or edible. Use gloves and mask when handling specimens. ISOPROPYL AND FORMALIN IN THE PRODUCT IS FLAMMABLE! KEEP AWAY FROM HEAT AND OPEN FLAME. *

Properly caring for your collection of jarred specimens is important, not just so they stay in good condition but also so that you don't burn your house down. NEVER store a wet specimen somewhere that is overly warm (a house in the summer with no air conditioning) and always keep them away from direct sunlight. Never ever ever smoke or burn candles nearby and never store your specimens near a heater or fireplace - they are extremely flammable!
