I wonder if it is possible to place a leaky (not shorted) paper wax capacitor in a sealed container of molten wax and apply a high vacuum for a length of time to extract the embedded moisture. Fred.
Problem is that the moisture has reacted with the acid in the paper, and that has reacted with the metal foil inside the cap, and that causes the leakage. Basically, it's too late. Just replace the wax cap, and throw the wax cap out.
