castile soap for removing wax


I have a question about removing wax , but first let me thank you for having the most definitive dying site online. I would be lost without it. Anyway , my nearest wholefoods store has liquid castile soap but it is not Dr. Bonner's. Is this the same thing ? I'm removing it from a hanging and am eager to try it. Also how much soap do you use ?

I would use any liquid castile soap - it should do exactly the same thing as the Dr. Bronner's. It may vary in strength or in scent, but the important fact is that it is soap and not detergent. (Detergent is great for many things, just not this.)

How much? I don't know. I just squirt some in. Very unscientific, I know. I suppose that a squirt might be about a tablespoon or half an ounce.
