Treatment of fresh stains
Treatment with a hair dryer
This stain can be treated with a hair dryer.
For this you need a hairdryer and a white cotton cloth. Next:
- Moisten the stain all around with cold water. Heat the candle wax stain with a hair dryer to make the wax liquid again. This may take a while, please be patient. As soon as the wax liquefies, gently rub out the stain with a white cotton cloth.
- Do not use an iron, as this easily causes irreparable damage or burns to the material.
The water ensures that the last remnants of wax do not sink away, but can be absorbed into the cotton cloth. - Remove any remaining stain with James Stainspray on a cotton cloth. Wipe off the remaining stain with gentle, long strokes. Test James Stainspray first in an inconspicuous place for colour and material resistance.
