Help!! Somehow a red crayon got mixed with clothes in the dryer, and now there are melted in crayon stains in some of the clothes. Does anyone know how or if the crayon stains can be removed?
Thanks

SolUMel and PreSpot will work wonders along with MelaPower...plus they don't have any toxins or chemicals in them. I've gotten makeup, markers, dirtstains, etc. out of my clothes!
Good luck!!

It may be time consuming but if none of that works you can cover the stain with a piece of paper bag and then iron it to melt down the wax and the paper will absorb it as it melts. I know it is alot of work for a whole load but its another option. HTH!
Are the stains from the wax itself or from the dye in the wax? If it's wax build-up, just use your iron and an old towel. Put the clothing item with the wax on the ironing board, place the old towel over it and the place a warm iron on top. Every 10-15 seconds, lift up the iron and towel to check. As the heat melts the wax, the towel should absorb the wax. My coworker had to do this recently on the carpet when a candle warmer was knocked over with a fully-melted candle on top.
Not sure if it will save you, but I just had a lipstick crisis, hot pink lipstick on an entire load of light clothes, and soaking the load in hot water, with dawn dishsoap and era, did the trick. For a few pieces it took another round of the same thing, but they are all perfectly clean now. Good luck trying!~A.~
