-
Microwave the glass jar until the wax is melted and pour it out
-
put the jar in the freezer for an hour, then chip the brittle wax out of the bottom of the jar. Comes out clean!
-
Hot soapy water, then use a wooden skewer or cocktail stick to make holes in the wax lots of them leave for a few minutes and then you will find it will come away with an old spoon.
-
Turn the glass jar upside down and put it on a pop sickle stick on a paper towel in the microwave or use a hair dryer in the same way.
-
Submerge the glass in a pot of warm water, 1 inch above the jars and heat slowly on the stove, as the wax melts it will float to the top of the water. let cool over night before removing the wax and then the jars.
-
Place the jar in a pan filled with cold water up to the bottom third of the jar. Bring the water to a simmer. When the wax is melted enough to pour out, remove it from the water with a protective pad. Empty the wax into a disposable plastic container and wipe the inside of the jar with a handful of paper towels. Use dawn dish liquid to clean out the haze.
