A minor point.
If paraffin is heated for extended periods of time or at too high  a temperature then the lower melting point components may be lost. This is probably not significant in the normal path lab but may be of importance if large volumes of paraffin are kept heated as a reserve.

Absolutely not! In the same way that may melt lead time and again.

Good Morning fellow histonetters!!
