How to remove wax spills from clothing or fabric

The simplest and most effective method to remove wax from clothing or fabric

is to boil a kettle of water and allow it to cool down to just under boiling point.

Next find a old plastic container that you wont mind getting rid of afterwards.
I like using old ice cream containers. Take the fabric and position the affected
area over the opening and slowly pour the hot water onto it so that it acts
and looks as if your using the piece of clothing as a strainer of sorts.

Afterwards you can apply some washing detergent or soap to wash the
area that was affected to make sure that it won't have a stain. Make
sure before using this method that the hot water wont ruin the fabric.

If you are not sure there is another method that also works fairly well
and that is to take the fabric and iron it with a paper towel above and
under the affected area. I hope this information was helpfull.
