Anna,

    Try melting the wax with a heat gun or hair dryer while wiping it
    away with paper toweling. This will probably remove nearly all but a
    very thin film of wax, which will wear off in the next few uses (and
    help prevent rust!).   Never tried it on a rolling mill, but I have
    used the same clean-up method on my workbench and various tools with
    repeatable success. 

    You probably don't need me to tell you this, but I'd get a chain and
    padlock and immobilize the mill's handle when it's not in use - I'd
    hate to think what would happen to any little fingers caught in
    there.   :-/
