Q: You've seen these lights. They're set into the ceiling. To change the light bulb, you usually have to remove the screws that hold the glass or plastic dome over the light bulb. Usually there are about 2-3 screws holding the dome to the frame. Remove them with a screwdriver. Now, lift the dome head carefully off the frame. Some dome lights have notch mechanisms instead. In those cases you will push up on the dome lightly, twist it, and then pull it down. This could release it. If there is a notch, you may need to push up into the notch, and then pull it down. If the dome light is not screwed in, you could twist the dome off with your hands. Try wearing rubber gloves to remove it in order to increase the friction. Some dome fixtures are fastened to the frame with metal clips. Try pulling out one of the clips, and the dome should usually fall off. Some glass dome lights have a single center nut that you need to unscrew to get the dome off. If you have one of those dome lights with a metal rim, you should be able to unscrew the metal trim with your hands. It's possible you will have to break the seal on it first. For example, sometimes people paint too close to the trim, so paint could have dried between the metal rim and the dome cover. Try pushing it slightly upwards and then twisting it counter clockwise after breaking the seal (you could use a flat head screwdriver or knife to do this. Be careful). What if the light bulb is way up on a vaulted ceiling? And is recessed lighting? For example, some people have ceilings that are 16 feet high. Go to a home improvement store or online, and purchase an extended light bulb changing pole. These are long poles that you can use to change light bulbs. These extenders can give you a very long reach. Attach the suction cup to the hole. Attach the string to the side of the suction cup so that you can release the suction cup from the bulb. This process works for recessed lights. The pole works by fastening the suction cup onto the bulb. Extend the pole up to the lighting fixture. Place the suction cup on the bulb. Untwist it, and slowly remove the old bulb. Pull the string to take the bulb off. Put a new bulb on the end of the suction cup, which should still be fastened to the pole. Put it up into the recessed lighting fixture. Twist it in. Pull the string to loosen the suction. It shouldn't take you very long to replace the light bulb that illuminates the inside of your car. You probably can do this yourself. Take off the bulb lens cover. It's possible you will need a screwdriver to do this because some lens covers are held in place with two screws. In other cases, you can just pry it off with a flat head screwdriver. Put the screwdriver opposite the light switch. Press in.The lens cover should pop off. Now unscrew the light bulb from the socket. Screw a new bulb in (ask at an auto store to make sure you get the right bulb). Replace the lens cover by snapping it in place or replacing the screws.
A: Change a light bulb in a home dome light. Change a light bulb in a high ceiling. Remove a car dome light bulb.

Q: Many candle companies sell liquid dyes that are specifically designed to be used with their products. Other all-purpose dyes will successfully color almost any candle. The important thing is that you choose an appropriate dye for the type of wax you're working with. Otherwise, it may not blend properly. Powdered dyes and pigments, such as Rit Dye, can be useful for dyeing candles. Avoid ordinary liquid dyes like food coloring. When combined, the watery dye and oily wax will separate, producing an unsightly splotchy effect. To keep things simple, you can even use crayons. Since both the candle and the crayon are made of wax, they'll blend like a dream. Squeeze in a few drops, or shake in 2-3 teaspoons if you're working with a powdered dye. Be careful not to oversaturate the waxcandle dyes tend to be extremely concentrated, so a little bit goes a long way. The exact amount you use will depend on the size and number of candles you're making, as well as the depth of color you're aiming for. Dyeing with crayons couldn't be easier. Just peel off the paper label, drop in as many pieces of the crayon as needed, and stir! Keep your stirrer moving slowly and continuously through the melted wax. This will ensure that the dye gets distributed evenly. Once the color is uniform throughout, stop and determine whether it's dark enough for your liking. Try not to stir too fast, or you could end up splattering wax all over your work area. The more you use, the bolder and more vibrant the finished candle will be. Creating darker shades like hunter green or navy blue may require you to use double or even triple the amount of dye that you ordinarily would. Remember to stir constantly while pouring in the pigment. A good rule of thumb for estimating how much dye to add is to multiply the total batch size by 0.05%. To color 1 pound (450g) of wax, for example, you would need to use 0.227g of dye. When you're satisfied with the quality of the color, turn off the boiler and remove the melting container from the heat. The wax will need to cool slightly before it can be poured into the new mold. Use a kitchen thermometer to test the temperature of the wax as it sits. Pouring wax at temperatures higher than about 140F (60C) may cause frosting or shrinkage, or even shatter glass containers.
A:
Purchase a suitable candle dye. Add a small amount of dye to the melted wax. Stir the dyed wax thoroughly for 2 minutes. Add more dye gradually until you achieve the desired color. Allow the wax to cool to 135140F (5760C).
