Ok folks. I desperately need some help for what shall be known as Dee's Most Moronic Accident of 2007.
All I wanted to do was wax my upper lip and get rid of a couple of irritating hairs. All disasters start with the best of intentions, no?
So... I was given this plastic container of depilatory wax. You microwave it, and leave the cover on while you do this so that it won't spill over. I had everything prepared, from 100% cotton strips, to the removal oil, to my soothing cream. Now, I usually have to nuke the damn container for at least 5 minutes. I punch in 5 minutes on the nuke. After about 2 minutes I smell something weird. I look into the microwave. The goddamn lid of the wax is still on....but there is wax on the glass platter that you place your microwavable on. Slightly panicking... I take out the platter and put it in the sink, thinking "Oh! Hot stuff! Goes in sink to cool!". :doh:
My question is... anyone know a less intensive way (than scrubbing the crap out of the aforementioned items with the removal oil for 14 hours straight) of getting depilatory wax off of a) a glass platter and b) the sink?
And please feel free to laugh your asses off at me. I did.
