My husband spilled red candle wax on the arm of my new microfiber sofa. I have tried everything to get it out and so far nothing works it is a fairly large spot. What can I do?
There is a little bit of gum residue on the new microfiber couch...how do i remove it?!??!
The other night we had no electricity and after the candle had been burning for awhile, I lifted it and the wax spilled on my new microfiber barco lounger.
It looked black and like it was burnt (my chairs are a tan.)
I used the iron on low with paper towels and it completely took off the wax. I then did the ice water with dish soap.
Amazing! It looks like nothing happened. I am so pleased.

Has anyone ever noticed that once a candle has burned completed out it is very difficult to get the residual candle out. I was taught a trick by a, believe it or not, candle salesperson and it works like a charm. Put the candle in the freezer. I normally forget about it until the next day. When you take it out, immediately thrust is down upon your hand and the candle will release. I am about to go downstairs and either put ice packs or frozen votice/tea light holders ontop of the wax on my brand new microfiber.

Thank you so much. Just had my sofa recovered in a sea foam colored fabric. Thought the wax ruined it!

I accidentally still had leg wax on me and it stuck to my dining chair. How do I remove it?

Oh, he he he this may hurt but try using a cleaning product, such as bleach (very diluted) and if it does work, then use some aloe vera to stop your leg from hurting and heal it quicker.
A cable installation guy hit a candle which spilled red wax all the way down the side of my light khaki colored microfiber sofa. What can I use to clean it without ruining the sofa anymore?

Go after the company he works for. Their insurance should cover it. The company who intalled a hot water tank in my batheroom damaged the lino and they replaced it.
I need to know how to get candle wax, that is already dried, off a couch that is made of microfiber.
Thanks for your time.
