Accidentally spilled wax on your outdoor sofa? Don’t worry—there are several effective ways to remove it without damaging the fabric or material. Here’s a step-by-step guide to restoring your sofa to its original condition.

1. Scrape Off Excess Wax: Use a dull knife or credit card to gently scrape away as much hardened wax as possible. Avoid pressing too hard to prevent fabric damage.

2. Apply Heat: Place a clean cloth over the remaining wax and use a warm iron on low heat. The wax will melt and transfer to the cloth. Repeat with a fresh section of the cloth until no more wax lifts.

3. Use Rubbing Alcohol: For stubborn residue, dab a cloth soaked in rubbing alcohol onto the stain. This helps dissolve any leftover wax without harming most outdoor fabrics.

4. Try Dish Soap and Warm Water: Mix mild dish soap with warm water and gently scrub the area with a soft brush. Rinse with clean water and let it air dry.

5. Commercial Cleaners: If DIY methods fail, consider a specialized outdoor furniture cleaner designed for wax removal.

Prevention Tip: To avoid future spills, use candle holders or opt for flameless LED candles near your outdoor furniture.

By following these steps, you can easily remove wax and keep your outdoor sofa looking pristine!
