If you are using cold wax you will need to start by unplugging your warmer, and using a plastic spatula or spoon and scrape it out as best you can. Any wax left in the cracks and crevices can then be wiped out using an old rag that is saturated in hot water. If you would like to clean out the wax and it is still hot, make sure to unplug the wax burner first and then carefully pour it into the trash can and then you can use the same method mentioned above and wipe the rest out with a rag that has been saturated (but not dripping) in hot water. *Make sure to throw this rag away as well when you are finished as it will ruin other clothing items in the wash.
