Soaking wont help get the blue wax out of the clothes. It was put onto your clothes when it melted in the dryer, and to remove it, it has to be melted again. The best way to get wax off fabrics is to put a brown paper bag on the waxy clothing, then use a warm iron on top of the bag. The iron melts the wax, and the paper soaks it up. Depending on how distributed the wax is on all of your clothes, you may not get it all… but maybe you can work on them enough to make them wearable again. Good luck!
