I'm sure some of you have done this before. Seems like it would be easy enough, however the batch I did yesterday completely stuck to the wax paper. Is there any sort of trick to this? Or does it just take more finesse on the timing?

Wax paper can melt its coating though.

Wax paper is tissue coated in wax that is suitable for room temperature applications. Parchment paper is treated with silicone, and can withstand baking temperatures.
For dehydrating, parchment paper is superior.
