Spotting – Melted Wax

Introduction

The following will work for melted wax from candles, crayons, and paraffin.

Procedure

1. 1.  – Remove as much excess wax as you can with a bone scraper and vacuum thoroughly
   2.  – Place absorbent paper (brown paper bag) over the wax. Terry cloth is also effective
   3.  – Place an iron on top of the paper and melt the wax onto paper.  Never put the iron above ‘wool’ setting as this will damage fibers
   4.  – As wax melts into the paper, slowly move the paper to a clean spot
   5.  – Continue till no more wax is absorbed into the paper
   6.  – Apply Solvent Clean to the spot and dry vacuum
   7.  – If a little color or residue is left, apply Avenge Spotter
   8.  – Rinse and extract
   9.  – Neutralize with Power Rinse
   10.  – Dry quickly

 

NOTE: This is the most efficient and effective way to remove most wax stains; however, occasionally you may need to use a stronger solvent like All Solv in the final steps of removal.
