Is that just a large amount of dopping (sp?) wax or is it something else all together?

@helicrashpro It's Japanese chasers pitch, called matsuyani. Essentially a blend of pine rosin, powdered fire clay (or similar) a dash of charcoal powder for colour and a teaspoon of vegetable oil.. Like treacle when hot and like rock when cold.

Is that just a medium weight pitch that you are using for the repousse?
