6. • The researchers would want to recommend to the people the
following:
• They can also use any kind of Detergent Soap to be
able to make the floor polish have a good scent.
• The researchers recommend to just buy ½ kilo of
paraffin wax enough for all the experiments that may be
done in order to save more money.
• Use steel molding tray in order to avoid plastic ones
from melting because of too much heat from the coconut
oil.
• If necessary, use gas stoves other than using charcoal in
order to save more time and to turn the coconut milk
into oil faster.
