Wax Stains

1. Scrape away as much of the wax as possible using a spoon or butter knife.
2. Place ice cubes in a plastic bag, apply to the wax stain for 5–10 minutes, then try to scrape away more wax.
3. Place a paper towel over the stain. Rub a warm (not hot) iron lightly over the paper towel. If the stain persists, treat with stain remover or rubbing alcohol.
4. Brush with a stiff bristle brush; rinse with warm water.
5. If the item is clothing or a tablecloth, launder at the highest heat the fabric will tolerate. Put the item in the dryer only after the stain is gone.
