I have those plastic frames and was wondering the best way to put beeswax on them?

I use those little 4" foam rollers dipped in hot wax.

"In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag...We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."

Theodore Roosevelt 1907

I use a 3 inch brush.  Dip in hot wax and just brush lightly to coat the raised cell markings.  If there are areas on a frame, in use, that they are not building on, I will take a piece of wax and rub it onto the open areas of the plastic. Sometimes that will get them started in those areas.
