I have two methods so far that work for me depending in the size of the pot/bowl and its relative value (cost of replacement). 1) Completely submerge the entire thing in boiling water. Allow the wax to boil off and then pour off the boiling water with the wax in suspension. 2) Deep freeze the thing for 24 hours. Then bang it on the cement. At this point most of the wax and propolis will 'shatter' off and the rest can be easily scraped before the object warms. Carl Powell [log in to unmask]
