Cleanup of the PD7 - Couldn't Be Easier

Cleanup of the PD7

Cleanup of the PD7 (with soap) was super easy!

David Fisher
Now here is one area where the use of the PD7 differs pretty dramatically between candle and soap making. Clean up. With the soap, I just poured some hot water into the melter, let it heat up, and then opened the spigot into the sink. I did this twice, and then wiped it out with paper towels. Couldn't be quicker or easier.

Obviously, you couldn't do this with wax-you don't want even a tiny bit of melted candle wax going down your drain-but if you used the melter exclusively for soap, this is a great benefit.
