Wax Removal for Upholstery

Supplies needed:
1 or more waxcidents
butcher paper
hot iron
time


Lay the paper over the affected area and gently apply heat with the iron. As the wax melts, it is absorbed by the paper. Move the paper often so that the wax doesn't seep through and onto the iron. Avoid using pressure with the iron - you're trying to get the wax out, not press it deeper into the fibers of the fabric! The best technique is to melt layer after layer using a fresh part of the paper to get maximum absorption each pass.
