Here are a couple that have worked for me after candlemaking accidents.
Hot air stripping gun-  Scrape off surface wax with a  plastic or metal spatula (Depending on the surface.) then warm the wax with hot air from the heat gun.  Wipe up with paper towel as soon as it starts to get shiny/melt.  Use the lowest heat that will work to prevent damage to the surface being cleaned.  This works well on enameled appliances and on linoleum.
Hot Vegetable oil.  Hot vegetable oil will melt and mix with the wax, diluting it and softening it, so that degreasing detergents or other cleaners can lift the stuff out.   Should be hot enough to melt the wax, but not hot enough to "Fry" whatever the wax is stuck to.
           This is a great way to get stubborn build up off of expensive tin candle molds.  Pouring hot oil thru them gets them clean and a final cleaning with dish detergent leaves them like new.  Also great for cleaning up pots and pans used for melting wax- pour in a little vegetable oil, heat. swirl around, and wipe out with paper towel.  Repeat, and the pan is usually as good as new. (Propolis comes off with a little alcohol, but yellow stains from the propolis NEVER seem to come out of white enamel.  If someone has found a way, please tell me!)
Electric Iron and Paper towel or Newspaper.   Heat up an old electric Iron (Don't use the same one you use for clothing unless you are prepared to do a lot of cleaning of the iron- try a garage sale or thrift shop iron that you use only for this.)   Place a few layers of paper towel on top of the wax, and apply the warm iron to the waxy area.  As the paper towels become saturated with wax, remove them and apply clean towels to absorb more wax without spreading it.   If you are dewaxing fabric, put paper towel under the fabric too, to absorb from below.  Newpaper works too, if the stained surface is dark colored, but watch out- the newsprint may transfer.
Dry Cleaning.   Dry cleaning takes wax out of clothing.  However, Make your dry cleaner aware of the wax, so they can handle it properly.  They will probably want to run the item in the last load of the day, just before the dry cleaning fluid is exhausted and changed out for fresh.
There are solvents that will dissolve or break up  wax to some degree, but getting out most of the wax by scraping or melting helps these substances to work.  Try Simple green or other concentrated degreasers or Orange based cleansers straight and undiluted.  Beware of using solvents that are flammable- it takes time for most solvents to work on beeswax, and you may end up with an explosive/ toxic cloud of vapour before you realize what is happening!   BE CAREFUL!   I'd try every other possible option before even thinking about trying solvents- they are just too dangerous.

What is the best way to remove wax (such as cement, for instance).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
