Just rub the crayon into the engraving, filling it in. Rub all the wax off with a paper towel. If you get bored, get a new crayon.

I seem to recall that there are special wax sticks that are made for this purpose. Years ago I worked in a bowling alley and we used them to fill in names or initials on bowling balls. They are made of harder wax than crayons and last much longer. I'm not sure where to get them, but I'm going to try to find one.

Trapped within my imagination
Hey Save, do you do murals?..I'm a muralist, I think doing a full mural on the prodigy would require vice grips, nice brushes, good lighting and no coffee lol...I've been thinking about painting one realistic piece on it..Like part of the prodigy has ripped open and something really kewl is inside...Or maybe a spider in 3D effect would be faster and more understated...But, I dont like spiders and its a little small to paint a full blown kitten on it lol..

Ive been thinking of gold-leafing my end caps. I think it'll pop against the tan body.

If we can every order custom colors i think fire engine red with gold leaf end caps would look really cool but you would have to clear coat the gold leaf somehow or it will just flake off i would assume

Oh on a side note anyone know a retail store where i could buy those laquer stiks they seem to be pretty hard to find ...i was thinking either the gold color or a silver color.
I know i could probably order them online but i would prefer a retail store i could just drive too.

Try Michaels! They usually have that kind of stuff.
