Hi All
I had a "beezaster" with a fallen comb when I had to push several into alignment. It fell and I couldn't put it back on it smashed so badly(a new one full of nectar). Then I guess I was flustered all day because much later when I was melting the new sticky comb-which I melt in water and let set into a separated "cake" in the top of the old stainless coffee pot I use-I ended up splashing some of the wax. Getting it cold enough to scape off the surface isn't so bad but my hands got totally sticky with a fine layer of waxy residue. Most people with any shop know about this but backyard keepers may not.For the 20th time and reason, I turned to Orange shop soap and it eliminated the sticky from what I was scraping and came right off with my first hand wash without needing hot water. I just wanted to pass along how how Great that product is for many things...like painting clean up too or tree resin. I think there are several brands both gritty and not, so I just call it "Orange".
PS- works great on a sticky dog fur spot too!
