To Remove Hair Removal Wax from countertops/floors and the wax pot itself:
***i recommend testing a small area to be sure it doesn't ruin the surface of the item***
While wearing gloves (and changing them if they get wax on them not to wax up your hair dryer) blow dry the wax to melt it, wipe with a dry towel (one that you can throw away afterward). Then finish off by cleaning the surface with a multi-purpose cleaner.
