Oh heck........ Start by scraping off as much as you can then get a gauze really soaked with xylene and scrub the rest out.  (leave me alone, it's not Friday yet!) Linda

But you will have to repeat this many, many, many times (and it is likely that there will always be a residue noticeable as a different colour/texture). That is what happened to me!

  This works on carpeting so you may want to try it. You need a brown
paper bag and an iron. Put the paper on the chair and run the hot iron
over the paper. The iron will melt the paraffin and the paper should
absorb the paraffin.

We have some fabric chairs in our lab that have parafin on them. Does
anyone know of a way to clean the wax off?

Thanks
