It is impossible to remove all traces of wax from an egg, but you can try to remove some of the wax. Once wax has attached itself to the surface of a pysanka, it has penetrated the pores of the shell and is there to stay. Scraping it off will make the visible wax disappear, but bits will remain and may leave unsightly marks. However, if you use a solvent, you might be able to get off most of the wax. Start by using a very sharp tool, such as an exacto knife, to scrape off excess wax. Be careful not to scratch the shell. Then use a small craft applicator (they look like tiny Q-tips) to apply a solvent to the area where you wish to remove wax. Be very careful that the solvent does not drip onto areas where you want wax to remain! If this happens, you may end up inadvertantly smearing the entire design. By using a tiny craft applicator and a very tiny amount of solvent, you can sometimes dab it only onto the "mistake" to dissolve unwanted wax. It is very difficult to do this well, and often no matter how careful or thorough you are, the shell will not accept the dye as readily under areas where wax was removed. While it is sometimes possible to remove bad lines or spots using Goof-Off, Naptha, or some other organic solvent, it may not work. The solvents will dissolve the wax and, if you're lucky, you can get it all off. If you do not get ALL the wax off, a thin film of wax spreads and will cause blotching. Successfully removing wax takes a lot of patience and experience, and doesn't always work. Your best bet is to either work around a mistake (remember, there are two sides to an egg and you can only display one at a time) or, if the mistake is really bad, start over.
An advantage would be that if you make a mistake, you can rub it out and re-write it again.
He flies to close to the sun, and the wax attached to the wings melts, and he falls to the ground.
Solvent wax refers to solvents that remove wax. The solvent is able to dissolve, or get rid of, the wax.
You can remove all, or a majority of it, by placing an ice cube on the wax, then chipping it off the wax as it hardens from the ice.
Well, with the theory that you freeze a candlestick in order to remove the wax, perhaps putting a block of ice on the wax and then trying to scrape it off would work. Heating the wax would tend to make the problem worse.
Hi. Water is generally the best method to remove unwanted wax :)
To remove the old wax from a surfboard, first soften the wax by putting it under direct sunlight, using a wax comb, scrap the board, and roll over the wax ball on the board to collect the remaining bits of wax.
Make a mistake is correct.
remove both and you will not make a mistake

Ear wax helps to keep your external auditory meatus and your tympanic membrane soft and pliable. If you remove the ear wax, your ear drum could dry out and crack.
