Crayon in the Wash

I had the same problem but it wasn't my kids that left the crayon it was me. I worked at a waitress and at the end of the night I cleaned up and had a habit of putting all the crayon I found in my pockets and forgetting and washing and drying them OH what a mess I messed up my husband Football Jersey and he was mad!!!! I tried everything and nothing really worked I had to replace the jersey and everything esle that was in that load. Please let me know if you come up with anything

WD40 works - my cousin had multiple crayons melt on the back seat of her car and used WD40 and it came right out!

I was to understand that if you put newpaper on the item and iron it, that it would lift it out. Put the setting where it needs to be for the item your ironing. Hope this works for you.

you could try ironing the spots with a paper bag over the spot. I know this works for candle wax!! Also try putting liquid dish detergent on the spots. I put dish detergent on any oily spots on my kids clothes and it breaks down the grease and removes it. It is worth the try!!

Sol-U-Mel is what you need.

I usually use a combination of Resolve Stain remover and Clorox Beach Alternaive (color safe) for stubborn stains, and it works fine. I've used it when my son had paint and cryon on his clothes, but i think the dryer may have baked the paint in. You may need to soak in Resolve for a couple of Hours before washing again.
