Remove wax from plates and glassware
Since I like to toss a lot of candles, not only at Christmas time, I make many wax stains in the most impossible places. On plates and glass bowls, I have the experience, as far as suitable to put them for a short time in the microwave and the soft wax with kitchen paper or newspaper (daily newspaper - no magazines) to wipe.
Dishes or glass, which is not suitable for microwaving, simply "process" with a hot hair dryer and remove the liquid wax in the same way.
