Negatives Contaminated with Lava

Hi Folks. My wife decided to test her carpentry skills by building a shelf. She then put my 3 ring binder of Vue-All encased negatives on the shelf with a "Lava Lamp" she didn't particularly like. Well, the whole thing came crashing down. The lava lamp broke and sloshed all over my book of negatives. now I have the negatives contaminated with the waxy remains of the lava lamp. I've decided to take out each negative, wash it, dry it and put into a clean negative saver page. I'm pretty sure the lava juice is inert, but greasy. What do you folks reccomend to wash the negatives? Dish soap? I'm sure millions of people are in the same situation, but just too embarrassed to ask.
