Easiest way to remove wax from plastic foundation

Leave your old plastic foundation brood frames in the sun for an hour on a warm day and the wax peels right off.
Edit: This definitely works better on black foundation and it has to be sunny. The older the comb, the better.

The smartest I've seen!!! CONGRATS!! (You get a BIG like!!)

That's how I do it letting the sun do half the work for you! Sometimes it's more difficult on much older frames. Drone cells are the hardest to deal with because the bees use so much wax building them and they don't want to lift off the plastic foundation easily. This is still the best way though.

How do you clean your frames and you boxes? How do you get the black moldy stuff off?

[@murraysteele2240]

Pressure washer or orbital sander

[@teamiller7648]

Is the bleach necessary?

[@theycallmeskillet5840]

Not really

Next time use a pressure washer, it’s way faster
