Have you ever had the unpleasant experience of spilling candle wax on your favorite tablecloth and not knowing how to remove it? Don't worry, there are several ways to remove candle wax from a tablecloth efficiently and without damaging the fabric.
The first thing you should do is cool the wax. You can do this by placing ice in the wax or using a hair dryer on low heat to harden it. Once the wax is hardened, it is easier to remove.
Below, we give you several options to remove wax from the tablecloth:
-
Use an ice scraper or credit card to gently scrape off the wax. Do this carefully so as not to damage the fabric of the tablecloth.
-
Place an absorbent paper on top of the wax and use a low temperature iron, without steam, to heat the wax. The wax adheres to the paper and is easily removed.
-
If the tablecloth is wool or silk, you can use a damp sponge to remove the wax. Using the sponge, gently rub the wax until it comes off.
In any case, it is important to be careful and not rub hard to avoid damaging the fabric. If the wax has left stains, you can use our stain remover stick Nº03 for delicate fabrics or our Oxygen Booster Nº04 for cotton, linen or mixed fibers.
Once you've removed the wax from the tablecloth, wash it as you normally would. Be sure to follow the manufacturer's washing instructions to avoid damaging the fabric. We recommend our Nº11 with organic lavender or our Nº13 for delicate fabrics.
We hope these tips help you remove candle wax from your tablecloth efficiently and without damaging the fabric. With a little patience and care, you can enjoy your favorite tablecloth again, no problem.
