And remember NOT to let the kids loose with lollies or crayons again...

Thanks for that Masona but already tried that, i think that the crayon needs to be remelted but i think a heat gun might catch the rest of the seat on fire, mind you then i wouldn't have sticky lolly or crayon on it... any other suggestions?

From the ' Handy Tips ' book:

Crayoncombination of wax,oil and dye) Dab a waxy stain with white spirit or dry-cleaning fluid.Apply glycerine and leave for one hour.Soak or wash in a heavy-duty detergent containing fabric bleach.

Probably best to try it on a spare fabric to make sure you don't dis-coloured it.

They only recommend heat from a warm iron with brown paper on candle wax only and not on crayon!

Thanks again Masona, i think it soundz easier to sell the car & let someone else deal with the problem or add more crayon & make it a feature of the car.
