Anyone have any suggestions on how to remove and clean my refillable pots that I use for hard wax. I'm switching between waxes a lot and would like to be able to clean them out and use with different wax.

I don't have any wax cleaner but I was under the impression it only works with soft wax ( don't ask me why lol thought I read it somewhere)
Could I heat up the little wax that is left and maybe mix some oil into it and dab it up with paper towel or something lol.

I just want a fresh clean pot and I've just been buying new ones but if I can't get them cleaned I will never use them again as I wasn't a fan of the wax I used in them.
I did try looking this up but everything I seen was about soft wax.

Put your wax pots on full blast heat, scrape out as much wax as you can and then clean the pots with wax solvent and a wax strip - the Depileve orange solvent is really good.
 
I put it on Highest Hit and once its really hot spray wax equipment cleaner on Strips and wipe around works great.....

I do the same....high heat except I use big cottonwood pads & baby oil.
 
Don't use a steel scourer on your wax bucket liner, you are damaging the surface integrity of the container therefore producing micro grooves for dirt / bacteria to hide.
