For example, one cannot fail to follow the recommendation not to act on hot wax and above all to stay as far away as possible from cold water. This is the worst remedy there is.
Rather, you should wait until the stain has completely dried and then be patient and follow your grandmother’s advice, unique remedies.
Remedies to remove wax stains from various fabrics
The first remedy that generally solves any problem is: take a dull knife, follow the contour of the wax stain, rub delicately only externally and slowly lift the machine present on the fabric.
You have to make precise but above all delicate movements, otherwise you will ruin the fabric and at that point there is very little that can be done. Some people use a dryer to remove wax stains from fabrics. There is no denying that the method works, but it is really dangerous.
So, turn on the dryer, set it to maximum temperature, direct the air directly on the stain, keeping the device at least 10 cm away. Little by little the wax melts with the heat, so it is rubbed with absorbent paper.
The system works, but you can well imagine that there may be last minute unforeseen events that can permanently ruin the garment, so be careful.
Finally, the last method that generally gives great satisfaction and that solves the problem in a very short time is the one that all grandmothers have used and continue to use today.
