I would suggest checking the internet for a phone number or email for liquid naills directley and ask if it is microwave safe??? I would be carefull when microwaving anything with out a plate because the adheasive is toxic!!

I use it for Gigi Honey Wax and it does takes a good 1/2 hour + to start melting.

I have not tried to microwave them to date. You could prob do it for a few seconds as I often will microwave my butter container to melt it & that is plastic as well. Good luck!

I don't know what the melt method is. Sorry I can't be of more help to you. Good luck.

It won't cut the wax, it will melt through it. You will lose some wax due to the melting

oh- i am not so sure you should be putting it in the microwave..i don't know if that might negatively impact the therapeutic aspectsbecause it is so pure and unprocessed it contains an amount of bee's wax-- if i need some to be liquid i just take mine and put it in a container and rest that container in a bit of boiling water. if i am using it in hot tea or something hot and liquid i just carve out a bit of a chunk with a flat knife that i've put into the hot liquid--it dissolves very quickly

Yes. We used Gigi wax. You only have to be able to put the can into it; this is just a warmer. It works well.

Its in a plastic container that may not hold up in the oven. But maybe in a pot on the stove? It takes a while for the wax to melt in my low watt microwave but it is probably possible on the stove. It would be a pain though.

Yes, you want to place the whole tin in the warmer. Only warm it on low because otherwise it will mess up the wax. Give it a try. It works great!!

No-Tweeze sells a melter unit, but I never bought one. I just scraped some out of the metal container and put it in a sturdy plastic container to use in the microwave. The friend who originally used it on me just kept it in an old whipped butter container. It wasn't easy for me to get the hard wax out of the metal container originally, but you can reuse what you scrape out several times, so it's worth the effort. Hope this helps.

no, the container is aluminum, it is designed to be heated in the wax warmer. Might explode (or at least spark) in the microwave. Best microwaveable wax (imho) is Sally Hansen Brazilian Bikini Wax, also available on Amazon. ~cheers

I would not recommend that you pour wax directly into this warmer. I would suggest you purchase a can of wax that normally is used with this warmer and when that can is empty you could refill the can. Hope that helps.

Yes, that's how I used mine. It's definitely NOT for use in a microwave, though.

although I have not tried using plastic in it with wax I would not recommend it because if it melt the wax it would melt that plastic

i don't think so...my best way to remove wax i with a clean rag and an iron. keep moving the rag to a clean area as the wax melts onto it. you'll have to dump the rag and sometimes scrub the iron surface for residue.

No. It would melt. Only use it for covering things that are heated up in the microwave.
