Great, my XXX-4 G+ is dirty, and smells like french lavender
Girlfriend decided it would be wise to knock over a scented candle while it was on, splashed all over my XXX-4 
. Now many of my tools also smell :/ of lavender. I guess I should clean it up prior to running, if that stuff melts and flows into bearings and stuff it could be a nightmare.

Lavender smells lovely
Just think of how much fun it will be to spin the wax off the tires!

Never mind, it's only an electric losi. 
<ducks and covers>
To be honest, you're lucky your girlfriend allows your cars near her scented candles (or is that the other way around [&:]).
Mine's been watching the euro championships (big international soccer tournament) with me lately, AND playing wii, so I can't complain, it's the closest ashe's ever come in 8 years to my own lifestyle. I'll soon have her running RC.

From her point of view I got what I deserved for having the audacity to bring an RC into the bedroom :|

RE: Great, my XXX-4 G+ is dirty, and smells like french lavender
My MGT was do dirty these last few weeks from driving in the rain as I did not have time to clean it becasue of my exams, all i did was spray it with WD-40.
Well my mum got annoyed and now the MGT lives in the garden under a table to shelter it from the rain. [&o]
I brought it in just now to prep it for driving soon and it stinks of wet socks. I am planning on driving it through my mums lavender bush to get rid of the smell and teach her to not abusme my MGT again! [:@]

I'm not a chemist, but I have a serious feeling that wax can cause problems if it gets into bearings and stuff. Any oily mess that is solid at room temp is a baaaad thing.
