12/13/2023 0 Comments Wax seal spoonAfter mixing it into a paste, I applied the concoction to the spoon and vigorously massaged it into the unwelcome wax on my spoon. I started with a gentle abrasive that I had in house: baking soda! Long praised for it’s cleaning wonders, I decided to start with a mixture of baking soda and dish soap. I was devastated and tried many things to finally clean my beloved spoon to my standards. This happened to me a few years ago and I honestly thought my wax seal spoon would never recover. This is why I emphasize the importance of quality wax so much-please, PLEASE, learn from my mistake! Now let’s say that you (like Katrina of a few years ago) have come across a particularly difficult wax and not only that… it’s been baked onto your spoon and vows never to let go again. A third time is often required for darker waxes or if it’s after my last pour of the day and I want my spoon to be squeaky clean before I put it away. I have found that I usually have to re-heat and wipe my spoon off 2 times to get it clean enough to use again. I have burned myself a few times, but thankfully nothing bad-just a little jump away and a mental note to take greater care when working with hot objects! Of course, you want to be extremely careful as you wipe because the entire spoon and the wax will need to be hot in order for the wax residue to be pursued to come off of the spoon (or stamp). For most of your wax seal cleaning needs, a simple re-heat and wipe with a soft, disposable tissue or paper towel will clean your spoon up as good as new.
