oh but a high heat TM doesn't help cleaning

 

for me my TM melts wax like ............well.............wax

 

but when I had much less heat I would break it up with a teaspoon,use some orange gel or Isopropyl Alchohol let it dwell and run the wand over it

 

repeat as necessary

Does it matter?  On some topices there can be only one method.  If you don't agree, well I've been that road too many times. Let it be hot water.Guitar

And leave the pad wet for weeks???Guitar

I use suction to get out the water-the act or process of exerting a force upon a solid, liquid, or gaseous body by reason of reduced air pressure over part of its surface. I've never had a problem, but you DO have to vacuum it up and not dump a 5 gallon pail on it.

Wow!  I had no idea that wax was such a hot topic! 

We tried the iron / towel method and it worked like a charm.  We have now put irons in the vans.

Thanks!

Just be careful on olefin. The iron can melt it if left too long or turned up too high
