First I'd carefully scrape off any excess then I'd placed the item between two pieces of kitchen roll- put some brown paper on top of that and iron on a low heat, repeatedly moving the kitchen roll until all the wax was melted and absorbed (The brown paper just protects the iron). It's worked for me.0
