Wax and propolis buildup reduces the effective path of a wire excluder. This stainless steel spatula with a wooden handle is designed for cleaning metal models.
Rest the excluder on a firm surface and run it along the wires or paths with controlled movements. Remove large build-ups first and repeat without pressing the edge against joints or welds.
The manufacturer expressly advises against its use on plastic excluders. The steel may cut, scratch, or deform the slots and disrupt the selective passage of the grid.
Remove any remaining blade material, dry the steel, and avoid soaking the wooden handle. Check that the edge is free of burrs and that the excluder maintains uniform spacing before reinstalling it.
