Candle Wax and Wax Stains

Candles are a popular and appealing home accessory -- providing flattering light, evocative fragrance, and generally setting a relaxing, festive or romantic mood. It comes as no surprise then that some of the most common household spot problems involve removing candle wax, and candle wax stains.

Once candle wax hardens on a soft surface such as a dress, tablecloth or carpet, it becomes difficult to get off, and frequently leaves an oily stain when it is removed. No amount of scrubbing or scraping will remove candle wax stains from these types of surfaces.

Tedious, messy procedures using hot irons or blow dryers used to be the order of the day for removing wax. The fact is that if wax has dripped onto a carpet or other synthetic surface, it's quite dangerous to use heat methods, because they can melt the carpet and other materials.

Hand scraping the wax off with a knife is dangerous and also can scratch or tear the material or surface the wax has adhered to. And this approach still leaves an oily wax stain.
