too hot for wax

If the wax you're using isn't working, try using parafin wax from a grocery
store. Just heat the stuff up in a saucepan or a portable electric pan and
you can dip the feet of your pots or paint it on with a brush (though when
painting, you should keep the brush submerged for a moment in the pan before
removing to wax as the brush must stay warm for the wax to brush on to the
pot with ease).

I personally like parfin wax cause it dries quick and is really resistant to
any glaze.
