The magic eraser did not work well for me, the paint was changing colors Report Spam or Abuse RE: Candle Wax off the Wall Post By bb (Guest Post) (05/05/2008) I tried boiling water and a sponge, worked ok.

The Wall - Solution: Hair dryer and paper towels. 2. The Tiled Floor. -Solution: Hair dryer and paper towels. Note: you will spend most of your time on the grout. 3. The Bathmat (carpet). -Solution: Place a brown paper bag or any paper really (NO print!) over the stain. Press an Iron (on medium heat) to the paper and watch the "wax spots appear". Use new pieces of paper/brown bag till all the wax is up. Report Spam or Abuse RE: Candle Wax off the Wall Post By Terri (Guest Post) (04/14/2008) The blow dryer REALLY works!!!!!

I just tried the blow dryer and then used the magic eraser and it worked! So blow dry the stain and then scrub.

Even got rid of our hanukkah candle stains from what we refer to as "black Sabbeth Sunday".

I scraped off the wax, used an iron and a blow dryer and most of the wax is gone. However, there is still a pinkish residue on the wall. I tried vinegar and nothing seems to work. I have to get this of the wall! Please help, Wyn from Orlando, Florida Answers: RE: Candle Wax off the Wall If all you have left is the stain, try using the "Mr. Clean Magic Eraser". I'm not sure if that is the correct name but it comes in a bar that looks similar to soap. We used it on a stained wall of an apartment we rented and it made the wall look freshly painted. (04/20/2006) By suerkeene@earthlink.net RE: Candle Wax off the Wall Just 10 minutes ago I spilled dark purple wax on my wall. Lets say, I flipped out and started scraping wax off, but I realized it would take forever. After experimenting for a while, I removed all the wax, but realized there was this vivid pale stain against my white wall. So, I got a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser and scrubbed for a minute or two and it was gone.(b)(/b)(b)(/b) (05/06/2006) By Sierra P. RE: Candle Wax off the Wall Thanks for the hair dryer suggestion! It really worked. Quickly and easily, without damaging the paint at all! (02/09/2007) By Catherine RE: Candle Wax off the Wall This just happened to me, my son accidentally ran into a table that I had a electric tart burner on and the wax from the tart was all over the wall. I scrapped some off gently but then I got out Windex and it did wonders, I was real surprised. (03/24/2007) By chris s RE: Candle Wax off the Wall Yes! After reading this site, I tried two attempts - magic eraser and the hairdryer/paper towel method. Eraser is good til you run out of scrubbing power. However, there is nothing like the hairdryer/paper towel method. There isn't even a stain. (11/08/2007) By Kimberly RE: Candle Wax off the Wall The hair dryer works great but it's only part of the solution. Use the dryer to heat the wax, wipe it off vigorously with a dry towel. Then take another cloth soaked with Sol-U-Mel cleaner and wipe until the stain is gone. No, I don't sell Sol-U-Mel.

Today 3/15/08 I went on google search and looked up cleaning candle wax off a wall. This appeared and I have to thank you for making that job so easy with the hair dryer was easy. I allowed the hi heat of the blow dryer and dry the wax and I took a paper towel and wiped the remainder off. Thank you very much.

Of course it was a red candle and it stained the wall. We have scraped the wax off of it already but does anyone know what to do to get the stain off the wall? Thanks in advance. Christine in Sunny Florida Answers: RE: Candle Wax off the Wall 05/01/2001 The stain may have soaked into the paint. In that case you might need to repaint the spot. You can try taking a paper towel and your clothes iron. Iron over the paper towel. It will remove any of the wax that might be left and might lift the stain. When you are sure there is no more wax you could try a little Ajax or Comet (provided it's a white wall.) RE: Candle Wax off the Wall 12/29/2004 I have found to get the stain out is to use SHOUT clothing stain remover. It sounds weird but it worked for my wife's purple candle that made a great mess for the holidays. By Bad CAndle (Guest Post) RE: Candle Wax off the Wall 07/28/2005 Use your hair dryer to melt a small area then wipe with a paper towel, then repeat steps until it's clean.
