Pretty sure I have a delta too. I will give the candle wax a try. Seems like the cuttings get lodged between the blade and the "tires" on the bandsaw wheels. I have had to replace the original tires already and have another set as spares. The stock tires were very hard plastic, and they dried out and cracked. At least the off brand replacements seem more like rubber.
