How do you get candle wax off of a candlabra?


Question:Hi!
Got some candleholders over here with WAY too much wax... wax in the little cup you place the candlestick in and everything.

HOW DO I GET IT OFF?

Answers:
Rinse it off with boiling water in the sink. It'll come off just like that. Afterwards you can polish it and for next time try to use disposable candlestick cups to insert in the candlebra. It saves the mess.


Wash it in warm water and something like Dawn.
If they are small enough, put them in the freezer to harden the wax. When you take them out, the wax should be brittle enough to break out fairly easily.
use your blow dryer on it and the heat will melt it away
put them in the freezer for a couple hours, then just chip the wax off.

Or put a papertowel of the wax and pour boiling water over top
i put mine in the dishwasher. the water is so hot that it just melts it all off by the time its done. if its not dishwasher safe, try rinsing it under hot water till it becomes loose enough to come off.
get some WD 40 and spray it on the wax spots and then wait a few minutes and wipe off with a paper towel .
