In this process, safe quantities of beeswax and carnauba wax are added to the recipe, keeping the outer membrane solid, and the oil bar creamy inside. Joules & Joules Mars Black is a warm, opaque, and highly lightfast black, with moderate tinting strength and high covering power. It is a fast-drying paint with reddish undertones.
