2. 2Dab mineral spirits (white spirit) onto a cloth and press on the stain from the outside in
3. 3Wash with dish soap and warm water to remove the solvent, then wash normally

2. 2Leave for 30 minutes (try sitting it in sunlight for the lemon method)

1. 1Let the wax harden completely, then scrape it off with a plastic card or butter knife
2. 2Place a paper bag or brown paper over the leftover wax and run a warm iron over it — the wax soaks into the paper
3. 3Dab any remaining color stain with rubbing alcohol, then wash normally

✗ Do not: pour boiling water over it — the wax spreads into the fibers before it sets
