Allow the wax to harden - you can speed this up by putting the item
into the fridge or freezer. The majority of the wax should be easy to
break off. To remove any remaining wax, put the affected part of the
cloth between two sheets of brown paper or pieces of clean absorbent
material. Using a warm (not hot) iron gently move over material,
replacing paper or material when necessary, continuing the process
until wax is removed. Some of the stain may remain, this can be treated
with a dry cleaning solvent. Then give the item the hottest wash the
material will take.
Non Washable Fabrics
Treat as for washable instructions, when wax is removed take to the dry-cleaners.
Carpets and Furnishings
Treat furnishing as for non-washable fabrics. Using ice cubes in a plastic bag,
place on wax to set. Use the same method to set the wax on carpets. Most of the
wax can be picked off. On any remaining wax, put a clean absorbent cloth over
the stain and iron. Remove any remaining stain by rubbing with methylated
spirits, then shampoo.
