I have a very thin coat of wax on the inside of a hurricane glass candle holder. I cannot seem to find anything to remove it, and it is too tall to fit in the freezer.

Thanks in advance!

Be careful removing the wax in your sink! You could cause a stoppage in your plumbing!... You could use a hairdyer to melt the wax...letting the wax drip onto newspaper, etc...

If you can, run the hot water over it as mentioned above. I also use the non-scratch dish sponges to get the hard to remove wax off when rinsing with the warm water.

Mary,

Have you tried placing the candle holder in the basin of your sink & running hot water into it? This would melt the wax residue from the glass & you'd be able to rid the container of the wax residue in liquid form. Once removed, be sure to dry the container throughly.
