I'm working on this right now. So far all I can do is scrap the wax off and use goo gone. Then I run it again and repeat as it keeps throwing the wax that is in the inner parts back out on the walls. I don't know if we'll get it fixed or not. What a mess. Buskerdoo.com

I heard that u can use alot of wax. first sature it then let it sit for awhile and then wipe away.. :)

A good way of removing wax from any surface is to place an ice cube on the wax, leave for a couple of minutes and you should be able to lift it off.

how to remove candle wax from my dishwasher

I had candle wax clogging my dishwasher drain so I kept running the pots and pans cycle and sucking up the water into a wet/dry vac and eventually the drain worked again! Two votive candles were the culprits, so don't give up. Slowly the candle wax was melted by the hot water, but not before it appeared in the water and that's why the wet vac scooped it up so it didn't go back down the drain. At first the wax completely coated all the dishes and the bottom of the dishwasher, the rest went down and clogged the drain, so it doesn't take much wax to do damage. It took 4 or 5 times and hot cycles to remove enough wax to clear the drain. Good Luck!

Is wax paper better than plastic wrap in a microwave?

I would advice against using Wax paper in a microwave. The wax would easily melt when heated up by the waves. Wax would blend in with the food and then you eat it. Not sure if eating wax is harmful in any way, but I imagine there being certain additives to it like anti fungal chemicals. Probably not very harmful in small quantities but still.. Plastic wrap, if choosing the right type, does not give off chemicals to the food.
