Default Earbuds & Earwax

The Sennheiser CX300 may be considered disposable at today's prices
but there should be a way to clean them. No matter how clean you keep
your ears, the wire mesh over the diaphragm still gets clogged with wax.
Any ideas on cleaning? What's the melting point?

Me, not responsible - if lurkers actually try it and their hand and
everything else organic drops off.
