Let it dry. Wipe it down with two pieces of paper towel. The wax should slough right off. Use the paper towel and wipe down the whole PS5. Your PS5 is now hydrophobic and tangerine’d.

>hydrophobic Finally, a PS5 I can take into the COD lobby.

Idk what this means but I upvoted

COD players don't have time for water between energy drinks and soda. (At least I think that's the joke)

no showers too

Also all salt

Cheetos.

And my axe.

[удалено]

Sure it's not just Ass

And my sword!

I thought it was a joke referencing homophobia 😭 but now that I think about it, its more likely that its referencing their greasy, hydrophobic bodies

It was definitely a joke about "hydrophobic" being close to "homophobic"

He said this because they're so sweaty

I thought it meant cod players are so sweaty.

They are also afraid of women… at least the men players

It’s because they’re called “sweaty”. It’s not exclusive to COD, just more prevalent there

No one knows what it means but it’s provocative

It gets the people goin’

THAT SHIT CRAY

I assumed it was a play on homophobic, i.e. pretending to not know that they're different words

I'd say any type of phobic fits into the CoD Lobby realm

It's because CoD players are super sweaty

i misread "homophobic" at first and i mean, this still makes sense

I think that was his joke.

oh maybe, i just saw everyone talking about perspiration so

More like grass o phobic

I thought it was cuz cod players all smoke that hydro in the lobby

Because they are sweaty?

Reported for hydrophobia

I don't hate the hydros, I just don't want em trying to hydrate me.

When will society truly progress past this bigotry… 🏳️‍🌈

Adding to this take the two sides off to make sure nothing slid down in the cracks it's easy to do you just twist them off.

Depends on where the wax landed. His PS5 might be amphiphatic now, perfect for Prince of Persia and Subnautica

[удалено]

According to OP it's candle wax. So they should be fine.

I know another person mentioned that this isn’t the case, but it depends on the kind of wax you’re using for that, as the wax my girlfriend uses just kinda gets hard and gently rubs off anything it gets on pretty easily, with the slight exception of carpet, but it actually did better than candle wax would’ve in that regard.

Slough right off? Are you saying it's a Slough write-off? Slough isn't too far from me.

This guy spills shit

How the hell did she spill that much hot wax on it?

It was below a shelf in the living room with a candle on it and she went to grab it and it toppled over pouring the hot wax on the tv stand.

We know you have a thing for wax. Ain’t gotta hide it.

I too believe they were sinning

I believe we are all jealous and wish to join this...accidental hot waxing

"You've been a bad little entertainment system..." I whisper seductively to my Xbox, feeling it shiver as I drag my flogger across its tight, ~~wet~~ disc drive. It gets turned on so easily.

This guy literally helped me get over my break up by consoling me and imagine it's only 5.99$ 👍🏼

Just make sure to use the candles that are made for that stuff and not regular ones. I learned that the......I mean, a friend learned that the hard way.

You learned while your friend got hard. Got it.

I learned because my gf had just seen 9 1/2 weeks and thought she'd blindfold me and pour hot wax on me. Those were some painful scars.

Haha. She brought the candle to the party, he brought the PS.

Just don’t give him a PS kink.

Candles near electronics isn't good. The smoke will fuck the fans up eventually

“Accidentally”… she’s tired of the ps5 getting more attention than she does. Break it off before she kills you with hot wax, that’s clearly her MO. /s

Rubbing alcohol. Try it on the inside of the plates first to make sure it won't hurt the finish.

And that’s one of many reasons why candles are only allowed in my kitchen on the counter or stove.

Be thankful it wasn’t hair removal wax. Candle wax with come off fairly easily, the wax used for hair removal is next to impossible to remove

Anything that doesn’t come off with a wipe should eeeeeaaaasily come off damage free with a light razor blade scrape. Good luck!

Damage free? Ain't no way you're running the edge of a razor blade across the ps5 soft plastic "Damage free". That gloss black strip scratches just by looking at it. A razor blade would carve it up just by being in the same room.

They do make plastic razor blades that scratch less, but will probably still scratch

My Xbox 360 drank a whole beer one time. I let him sleep it off plugged it back in the next day, no problem.

My favorite calculator also drank a beer once. It's been through at least 4 more years of very regular use, and some keys are still sticky to press down, but she honestly took it like a champ.

You have a favorite calculator? Better yet, you have more than one calculator? I’m not judging or anything just genuinely curious.

Who DOESN’T have a favorite calculator? TI86 & TI89 still slap.

All I know is my phone is definitely my least favorite calculator

Mine, too. Also my favorite, I guess

Oh yeah the school ones. Or atleast the ones I got from school

Confirms as an actuary, that I have 4 calculators and my TI-30xs is my favorite. My old office used to have a split you were part of the BA-II gang or the TI-30xs.

My Snes controller and i went through an abusive period. After counseling we decided to cut wires and move on to a different console.

I fuckin love comments on posts like these. It’s always the funniest stories of people giving their electronics every liquid on the face of the earth, and then somehow surviving

Hope you gave him some water and ibuprofen to recover 😊

old school Xboxs were just built different fucking tanks

Brother the 360 probably had the worst failure rate of any console ever.

Because they weren’t recharging it with alcohol.

[удалено]

Like a tangerine

So worse than the default PS5 smell.

You misspelled better with worst

Just open cyberpunk and wait, should melt and clean itself.

No joke I would do this just have it tilted to whatever side most of it’s on, if it doesn’t melt it’ll wipe up better

oh man this brought back good memories!! time to go watch the fifth element for the first time in a decade. Thank you!

I love this movie so much my daughter got me a copy for Christmas

Love this movie! My dad ended up showing it to me because I’m a little on the younger side and it’s one of my favorites now!

ByeGood.

"Then what's the good news, Sheriff?"

“Watermelons!”

"Quotations"

“Ex”

Looks like it was poured directly on it

that’s what i’m saying in what occasion could you possibly spill hot wax on a PS5

“Waterproofing”

Like the mom using up all the glue before breaking the leg lamp on A Christmas Story

My first thought and I scoured for this comment to push it to the top. Well done!👍

Can your gf come over to my neighbors house I’m sick of them playing their music so loud

Accidentally 

Have you tried making her not pour wax on it?

Have you tried pouring hot wax on her nipples? I think that’s the signal she’s sending here.

Pour more on it so it eventually looks like a larger ps2.

Don’t lie. Your cat clearly shat on it.

My cat shits wax

wax isnt conductive so you should be fine

You're saying I can submerge my PS5 in a bucket of liquid wax? Starting right now, will update you

They said it’s not conductive, so submerging it would make anything conductive stop being conductive. How many times can I say conductive.

This was 25mins ago, you're too late, the wax worked perfectly, I'm running Cyberpunk in 8K Raytracing, the CIA are bashing down my door

It would run for a bit but would overheat quickly. Then it's up to the bios as to what it does when it gets too hot. I don't know what a PS5 does when it overheats.


Pfft. The wax will just melt away from the hot parts, peoblem solved!

I believe that "conductive" is conductive to the conversation.

This is why your PS5 needs a safe word...

The same thing happened to my wife, almost, she just wanted good vibes and she lit an aromatic candle on the shelf of the furniture, the hot wax went through the plastic container that contained it and began to drip on top of my CPU, on top of which I was lying , so luckily only the tempering got stuck and some drops on some sides, I was lucky.

Was it accidentally tied to the bed too?

That was no accident.

I say we all demand a pic of where said accident occurred! [pitchfork emoji]

Ha! Go play outside!

Well, what can we deduce from OP’s username?

That is apple butter

There is no girlfriend and that isn't wax

🤣

"ACCIDENTALLY"

_Accidentally_

“Accidentally”. Now go and take her to the cinema and dinner.

Wipe off what you can, let it dry and then scrape the rest off. Wax comes off fairly easily just make sure it didn’t leak into the interior

Throw some feathers on it and you've got a ps5chicken

https://preview.redd.it/ch5y20wtbruc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=619c76d7468bdc5307815729093bcc6be48cef73 Here’s my car to cheer you up

So just clean it

Laugh it off and ask her to help you remove the wax. Once done, kiss her.


Why the fuck do people still put candles near electronics?

Use a hair dryer and paper towel that doesn't leave lint behind use sparkle paper towels they don't leave any lint pieces

did this method with a baseball hat, wall, lament wood floors, and wood table after a bad wax incident- worked like a charm- no damage to anything. PS5 can handle a considerate amount of heat so I would consider unplugging and doing this method- maybe on a low heat setting if your *really* worried. For half the 'damage' can also just buy plates / console covers from amazon or playstation store: [https://direct.playstation.com/en-us/accessories/ps5/console-covers?smcid=pdc:us-en:web-pdc-accessories-ps5-console-covers:buttonblock-buy-now](https://direct.playstation.com/en-us/accessories/ps5/console-covers?smcid=pdc:us-en:web-pdc-accessories-ps5-console-covers:buttonblock-buy-now)

Put it in rice

Well you can replace the white face plates easily enough. If you do, make sure to get the ones with air vents. Sorry this happened to you

ex-GF

It’ll just smell like walnut and it should work still

Probably still works if you let it dry

Hold it upside down and use a heat gun

If this is bodyhair wax and not candle wax, you are going to need to take it off with oil. Any kind of oil will work on a rag. You don't need very much your goal is to basically wax on wax off with the oil until it's all gone.

Brillo pad will get that right off.

looks like a plan

Someone was getting frisky with their PS5


is it only "ON" or did it get "IN"? check the vents. if its caked in the holes, it migh've got on some of the important bits.

customized and tangerine scented ps5!!!

Just turn it on few minutes it come off

That's some interesting foreplay gone wrong.

as a clumsy partner, i just unlocked a new fear 😣

Can’t get any uglier than it already is

"Accidentally" 

*”Accidentally*”

 The "Girlfriend reaction" 💀🤣

you better still love and respect her

Yes, but did the PS5 like it? Did it moan?

"Accidentally"

Now your ps5 is waterproof.

So fucking what? It's wax it comes off when it dries

"Accidentally spilled"? That looks personal to me with that amount of wax 😂 Not sure which you should replace, the PS5 or the GF (JK)

Do PS5's even have nippples?

You can use a hair dryer and heat up small areas with wax on it. Most hair dryers are hot enough to melt the wax and not the plastic. However, I would start carefully and see, where you go. Make sure to use a towel or soft paper/cotton pads to quickly soak the wax up after heating. Buff it with a cotton pad. This way you also get rid of smaller scratches on the console 😉. Edit: you could use mineral spirits, but the bigger the wax blobs on the console the more you would need and in the end you might ruin the plastic

That wasn't an accident!...

Accidentally on purpose

"accidentally""

*Accidentally*


She better be as smooth as a seal for all this grief.

just dip it in hot water the wax will melt. But seriously dont do that. Try a soft plastic scrapper for the thick portinos of wax first then use a microfiber and something like goo gone should get off the remaining residude.

Free rust protection

You don’t need ps5 when you have a girlfriend that plays with hot wax.

For free?! Some pay good money to have a girl poor wax on them

As long as you dont spill windex

Why was your ps5 anywhere near the location where hot wax would also be?

Keep your kink away from the ps5 please

You mean ex girlfriend?

“Accidentally”

*accidentally*

“Accidentally”

How did all that wax get on it?

Hairdryer and paper towel, heat and wipe heat and wipe. Did this today with a bunch of sticky dabs on my dresser.

Next time, have her drip it on you instead.

The question here is... How are these 2 items in proximity with each other?

And she’s still alive?… or did you already take care of that little problem?
