    White Bees Wax is either chemical bleached or spread in thin sheets and put in the sun for a long period of time. To chemical bleach they use peroxide. I think that it is close enough to yellow to work. Yellow has minute amounts of honey and pollen in it.

    The 41st edition of ABC-XYZ of beekeeping page 116 says that they also use diatomaceous earth to filter wax after heating it to about 160F and use pressure to pump it through the DE
