HELP: How do I get candle wax of my carpet ? Accidentally spilt a candle … Thanks
I would try picking it out.
I would place some brown paper over the wax and iron over it with a warm iron. The wax will melt and hopefully be absorbed into the brown paper. Kitchen towels might do the same job
ice then scarape it off the carpet
Try icing it – if you can make it really cold it’s easy to pick out/off
these are good tips to know! i try to have good holders for the candles
Unfortunatly I have no help but that is really no good! Glad it didn’t cause any major damage
brown paper over the wax and iron on a low setting keep changing the paper until its all been melted and mopped up
Put an icebrick or similar in a plastic bag so the carpet doesn’t get wet, sit on wax to make it harden, then scrape off with a blunt knife
put a brown paper bag over the stain and then iron over it – the wax should soften and absorb into the bag
I will keep some of these in mind if I should ever spill candle wax!
I’ve never heard of some of these but I will keep it in mind if I ever get candle wax on my carpet.
A warm iron and brown paper does work in the carpet put not on the wall.
there are some good comments here
Boiling water, one melted pick up with cloth.
Have tried the iron and brown paper bag which woked in part but still left a mark/stain on the carpet.
