Thanks everybody- I had a brain fart and thought that just heating it enough
to kind of burn the wax would give me a nice color, since that's sort of how
it works on small forged items.
Of course, really what happens it that the wax enhances the color of the
fire scale, so it's heat it in the forge or do it with chemicals.
Lots of good info here.
