    What is a safe way to get candle wax off a wood surface?

    Question #43886. Asked by an alias. (Jan 31 04 11:26 AM)

    		To remove candle wax from wood, heat the wax gently with a hair-dryer and slide a piece of dull plastic (such as a credit card) under it to "pop" it up. Clean any residue with warm water and dishwashing liquid. Rinse well, then polish.

    		Most furniture finishes are lacquer, which is fragile. One should never use any hard object to scrape it, nor should you ever have to use anything except a moistened cloth to clean it.

    		Ice cube, then a plastic scraper. It will come off in one piece!

    I note that when a candle is blown out and a stream of thin smoke rises from the wick, if another flame touches only this stream of smoke then the candle lights! Why does this happen?
