Bee's wax:  So it is.  That's even better.

Got one apart and am about to order some polyesters to put inside the can, 
as well as a bunch of other values
for the other cans if repair should be necessary.  I should be able to 
rehabilitate this can to nearly its original appearance.

More to follow later.
