How do i get candle wax off of my bathroom floor?


Question:My lil girl knocked my candle over in the bathroom and it got all over the floor. I think it is linoleim floor. Not sure how to spell it but i guess thats close enough. LOL. Thanks.

Answers:
put a few ice cubes on it. Then try to peel it off. If it won't peel, try some more ice, try again, then use a spatula (that wont scratch the surface). I had this problem before in the sink. I ran cold water for a few minutes and was able to slide most of it off.


You should be able to remove it by freezing it with an ice cube (or several), then peeling it off. HTH
Use an ice cub, freeze the wax, and then remove.

Good luck.
Check spelling would help, anyway I wouldn't see how scrapping it up carefully would hurt, you don't have to use a metal object maybe something hard wooden perhaps.
Use a table knife & scrape it off. You can rub the spots with an ice cube, so they just pop off when you put the knife to them. Sorry - but it's a lot of work! Or - put a brown paper bag over the area & iron it with a WARM iron. It melts the wax & blots it up. Good luck!
Paper towles and an iron.
The ice cube trick will work, but use a plastic scraper. The iron and paper towel trick may damage the finish on you floor. For future reference, try soy candles that wash off surfaces with a hot, soapy rag. You can check these out at www.mycandlefarm.com.
