A better solution IMHO is to cut a foam paint roller the width of your frame 
and melt the wax in a container you can submerge the roller in. This works 
quite well, be sure you roll a few times if doing unwaxed plastic so the 
foundation warms to hold the wax. Even some of the prewaxed foundation can 
use the extra heat to get good adhesion. I found that it does not matter if 
wax goes on  a little heave on occasion. It is amazing how well and fast 
they will draw out these recoated frames.
