How to Remove Wax from Carpet: An Easy Way to Restore Your Carpet to Its Original Look

24.03.2023 17:14

Despite the fact that candles are not such a common attribute in our lives, sometimes we all use wax products: for example, during a romantic dinner or a child's birthday.

One careless movement and a stain of instantly hardening paraffin is already “showing off” on the floor covering.

Despite the apparent hopelessness, there is no need to despair and place an order for a new carpet in the store.

Instead, hurry to the kitchen, to the refrigerator - no, not to eat away your sorrows, but to grab a couple of ice cubes.

Place them in a thick plastic bag - this way, even if the ice starts to melt, the situation will not get worse - and place them on the dirty area for a few minutes.

After the specified time, you will be able to make sure that the wax has become hard, and therefore brittle.

Now arm yourself with a blunt knife or other similar object and remove the paraffin from the carpet.

All you have to do is thoroughly vacuum the carpet to remove as many remaining paraffin particles as possible.
