In order to quickly and effectively get rid of paraffin stains, use an iron. Place blotting paper and cloth where the stain is. Turn this “sandwich” down. Put a few napkins on top too. Heat the iron and slowly begin to iron it. Under the influence of high temperatures, paraffin again melts and passes to the fabric.

To completely get rid of wax, change napkins from time to time, put on new clean pieces of fabric. Wash clothes at the end of the procedure. This will remove oily stains from wax.

It happens that paraffin leaks on the carpet, which is impossible to wash. In order to get rid of wax on the carpet, also use an iron and napkins. If you are afraid to spoil the product, change the hot iron to a harmless hair dryer. In addition, you can completely get rid of paraffin with the help of cold. To do this, wrap a piece of ice in a plastic bag and attach to the stain. Wait for the paraffin to freeze, remove the ice and crack the wax. All that remains is to vacuum the carpet. Unfortunately, this method is time consuming.

At the end of the procedure, wipe the wooden surface with a product designed specifically for polished furniture.
