crayon mess

[Guest]

one of my kids had a crayon in his pocket and went thru washer and dryer. No damage in washer but crayon melted in dryer and melted into all the clothes and stained the dryer tub badly. Any suggestions on how to remove melted crayon stains from clothes and the dryer tub?

I wish I knew...same thing just happened to me!

To remove melted crayon stains from dryer, use solvent.

Still haven't figured out how to get it out of clothes.

The usual way to remove wax from clothing is to place a hot iron on top of blotting paper. Finish off with White Spirit (Turpentine substitute) which will partly dissolve wax.

The turpentine should then come out with ordinary detergent.

i looked it up on the crayonla web site. it works just tried it i washed a lot of clothes and there where crayons in the load. so what you do it spray wd40 then put some mild dish sopa on and scub it. it really works

Hey there folks,

I just opened my dryer door and saw that I just had killed all my wife’s good clothes that She likes to wear to work **Sigh** I went online and all the places that I went too said to Use WD-40. I tried that and seeing it was 1:30am in the morning I tried to fill up the washer again with hot water and took 3 big laundry scoops of Oxiclean and 2 scoops
Of Tide Laundry soap and let that run twice in the same soap, then drained it and had the Washer put in new hot water and did it again with the soap and laundry.. let that spin And let it soak, and after all the cycles I took her favorite shirt out and it was clean And no more crayons stains..!!!!

Hope this works for you too….
