A hot iron (but not too hot) and brown paper works great on wax. It's an old house wives remedy (I think my old Mum taught me it years ago) that really works well. Place the paper, shiny side up, over the wax and place a warm iron on top, gradually increase the heat until it start to melt the wax and it absorbs into the paper. Be carefull on synthetic fibres especially polprop. Kitchen tissue also works.
