How can I clean candle wax ( fairly large amounts ) from a suit jacket?

I got this answer from an A-Z Stain Removal book.

Freeze the suit in a freezer, which hardens the wax so you can break a lot of it off. The rest can be removed by putting two pieces of blotting paper either side of the waxy area and go over it several times with a hot iron. The wax will get soaked up by the absorbant paper. Do this over and over with new pieces of paper every time. Then take it to a dry cleaners and they will finish it off nicely.

Hope this helps.

Put brown paper on both sides of the wax (inside and out) then iron it on a very low setting. The wax will melt and be absorbed into the paper.

Good luck =)

when i was an alter boy we used to get coverd in candle wax, our mums would put kitchen roll on the wax and then some grease proof paper and then iron it

Lol. Cover it with an old towel and iron it on a low heat. The wax should melt slightly and hopefully stick to the towel and then peel right off.

freeze the jacket and then break off the wax. Wax can leave an oily stain. let the dry cleaner know of the wax stain
