I have used a little heated pot for melting wax off capacitors.
The resistor that is acting as a heating element is a 47R 25W aluminum clad type running from 24 to 30 volts.
You could run it from a 24 volt soldering station if need be. I just used a 30V bench power supply for mine.
The pot is an old film canister but there are one or two pill pots that have a screw top to be found for this purpose.
