Effective Methods for Removing Wax Stains from Terry Towels

To remove wax from terry towels:

1. Scrape excess: Gently lift hardened wax with dull knife/spoon.
2. Paper Towel + Iron Method:
   • Place towel stain-side up on ironing board.
   • Cover stain with several layers of paper towels.
   • Iron on medium-high (safe for fabric) – wax melts and absorbs into paper.
   • Replace paper towels until no more wax transfers.
3. Pre-treat: Apply liquid dish soap or laundry detergent to residue; work in gently.
4. Wash: Hottest water safe for fabric; regular detergent.
5. Inspect & Repeat: If stain remains, repeat ironing/washing before drying.
6. Dry: Per care label.

Note: Test heat on hidden area first. For valuable items, consider professional dry cleaning.
