Has anyone had their microwave spark when heating the wax?

No, I've never had that problem. It should only be in the microwave for 15 seconds.

If the wax is in a microwaveable cup rather than a block, the cup may have a thin metal strip on it to prevent theft. The metal strip is attached with adhesive and should pull of with ease.

I have been using it for last 5 years...never had this problem..YOu need to remove the plastic sheet on top of box before warming it.

This is not a microwave formula. You will need a professional wax warmer. You can use a strip and place the edge of it underneath the wax you have just applied to use as a pulling tab of sorts, but no, do not use strips on top of the wax.

There was no "sparking" when I used it. These are silicone, so there shouldn't be anything in the microwave that will spark.

I used it in a wax melt warmer, but dont add water to make it last longer. it starts to snap, crackle and pop

I did. I was just not as "forceful" with it. I just went over the burner lightly, removing as much of the gunk as I could. It didn't seem to affect it at all. Of course, I did end up getting the "sparker" wet, but once it dried (I just sparked it a few times) it lit right up. Haven't had any issues with any of it at all.

I`m sorry but I have never had that problem. I use my products nearly every day.I think they are fantastic. Are you perhaps over cooking in them, we sometimes can`t believe how quick they do work.If you have a high temp. microwave.

I have never microwaved them. However, according to USDA.gov, wax Ed paper is safe in the microwave. These sheets qualify as waxed paper (even if I think they are low quality.) I would assume it would be safe in the microwave. I would use it, but watch it to make sure it is not melting onto your food or to make sure it is not burning.

I put it in a throw away tin and heat it. You can use a microwave just make sure you check the temperature of the wax before you slap it on your skin so you don't get burned

I'm sorry to hear what happen but I've never encountered that too happen & I put mine in microwave for 2 minutes. If you experience that with a mug warmer I would think that is direct heat & the temp maybe too high for this glass. The instructions from Teavanna dishwasher & microwave safe. Good luck too you.

The heating function did now work for us using mineral oil - it does not seem to flow well enough. We were hoping to use it to clean the wax off 3D printed parts. So now we use a crock-pot with mineral oil to clean the bulk of the wax and then soapy water in the ultrasonic cleaner to clean off the remaining residue.

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

Yes, I had that burning smell as well. And some sparking as well. It is not normal and very dangerous. I stopped use it and thrown out it.

I wouldn't use it in a microwave because I've had melamine overheat in the microwave in the past.

You have to be careful with microwaving them....if its the microwave is too high or you put it in for a few moments to long they will bust....but I do like the product....just have to be careful

I have not noticed any crazing on my Mikasa Italian Countryside. I do use the microwave. Good luck.

No,it's not. actually,u can warm it up in microwave but wax will get firm in a short time.u will have to go back to microwave many times before u finish waxing a large area.If u need to wax a small area then it could be warmed up in microwave easily.

I have never done that. I put it in my microwave for. 2 minutes to heat up that's all. I'm pleased with this product.
