Wax on carpet and I made it worse
    #21792928 - 06/11/15 01:03 PM (8 years, 7 months ago)

Spilled a candle.  Thought it'd be a good idea to clean with soap and warm water.  Pretty much just spread the wax out and diluted it.  It seems like an easy fix as I only would need an iron and brown bag to get the wax out but I'm asking if that way of removing wax from carpet is a viable option still since it looks more like a wine stain now because I tried using water.

Would this play still work?  I don't have an iron reason I'm asking before I get one..
Any other techniques that might work?

google it but I think putting a couple pieces of paper towel and ironing overtop melts the wax and absorbs into the paper towel.

One time, I used ice cubes to harden the wax and crumble it off of the carpet. It worked pretty good. I don't know if that would work now tho, after your smear campaign.



Is it ok to post vids, Malcolm?

Ya my issue is I smeared it so it doesn't look like a wax stain but moreso like a wine stain.  I don't know if it makes a difference that it's not hard and crusty like the tutorials on YouTube for removing wax, for it's still wax but the form is different now thanks to the water.

If you own a carpet cleaner or know somebody who has one that'd take care of the mess easy. Gotta steam clean those carpets

Yeah a rug doctor from wal mart you can rent for 30 dollars a day, might as well clean your whole carpet in your whole house if you are going to do it though.

That thing steam cleans I think? and if it doesn't clean your stains you get money back I think.

I just googled it before you waste your time, it says the rug doctor doesn't have a heating element in it.

So you'll have to pour water that's hot enough to melt wax into the machine to begin with, that machine is no joke though

Everytime I move out / sell houses / apartments I use that, you can almost lie and tell people the carpet is brand new most of the time.

No problem!

Yeah, a steam cleaner would only really melt the wax though, you'd have to get your hands on like, a stanley steemer steam shampooer/vacuumer, and those probably aren't cheap.

If I was you I'd rent the rug doctor anyways, and just heat up some water in a tea kettle, not boiling hot, so you don't destroy the rug doctor, and then pour that into the machine but if you destroy it they don't check anyways, most walmarts have them in like, basically a vending machine, you swipe a card in it, and a gate opens, then you pull out the rug doctor, and use it, bring it back, swipe the card again and it's charged for how long you used it. So usually a human being never even looks at it.

But if it doesn't work, you'll just have a really clean carpet, with a wax stain haha. Don't blame me if it doesn't work just my brainstorming on what I would do, good luck!:thumbup:

wax sucks to clean

I remember when i was a little kid i melted a candle in a pot on the stove, and then dumped it down the kitchen sink, and turned the cold water on

:thisisterrible:

I had to shut off the water and remove all the piping under the sink to clean it out and unclog the pipes.

my parents never found out but i have never felt so stupid. My brothers encouraged me and then laughed at me when the drain clogged.

:lol:

a carpet steamer should get it out though

Granted you we're a child, but you didn't think of pouring boiling water down the drain to melt the clog out...?

honestly i didn't think of that at the time but almost all of the wax was caught in the u-bend under the sink. i knew how to remove it from watching my dad work on stuff. That just seemed like the easiest way for a for sure fix

if i just poured boiling water down the sink, i would also be worried about the wax re-solidifying further down the pipe at a point where i cant reach it.
