Removing wax stain on stove

Wife spilled hair removal wax out of the microwave located above our new stove. The top is covered, I was able to heat up most of it, and wipe it off. However, I cannot get the indirect areas from the heat source to melt the wax that was spilled there. Any Ideas how to clean this up? Also, the grates are covered as well.

Thanks

Use a propane torch to carefuly heat up the wax in the nooks and crannies, afterward just nick it out with Q-tips ⇦this on eBay or Amazon [affil links] .
