I love my candle lantern, but it is pretty gunked up. What is the best way to clean one?

Try putting it into a freezer for a few hoursQuote:

For removing exess wax from items like Christmas tree candle holders we usually place it on a paper towel and rest it atop the garage oven at a moderate temperature that just lets the wax slowly melt down to get dissolved by the paper.
Be careful to not burn down the garage, though.
What is a garage oven? You cook food in the garage?
You don't?
I often clean wax by poring boiling water over it. Fast, easy, and effective.
You can also just dunk something into almost boiling water and the wax will float off in a few minutes.
Ahemmm...Quote:
