Gently rub scorch mark under cold running water then soak in a solution of 5 ml (one teaspoon) of borax to half a litre (one pint) of warm water. Wash as normal. Stains remaining on cotton and linen articles can be carefully bleached out if the scorched surface is not too severe.
Dry-clean.
Scorches on carpets can be rubbed over with fine wire wool. Another way is to snip off the affected tufts very carefully. Furnishings need professional advice.
