How to get wax out of suede?
Question:I accidentally dripped candle wax on my suede shoes and I can't scrape it off. Does anybody know of a way to get wax out of suede? Thanks, guys!
Answers:
I would say put it in the freezer and then trying a toothbrush.. or an iron and paper from a paper bag if possible
Lord have mercy... you are trying to stump me on this one. Go to the paint department in Lowe's or Home Depot... there's stuff there that might do the trick. Goof off or Goo gone. I'm worried about whatever chemical you use might mess the suede up...
I dont know if this will work for you, take paper towels and place them over the wax spot and gently with a hot iron press on the spot and lift to move the towel and move it until the the wax soaks into the towel(you may need to repeat several times)
Brush it out and wear it out. Give it time.
If that isn't fast enough for you, then take it to the cleaners. they will know what to do.

Put the shoe in the freezer. It will make the wax hard and it will be easy to separate from the shoe.
take a piece of a brown paper bag..place over wax drips...have iron on cotton setting.run iron over wax drips...you may have to change brown paper bag pieces.but this worked for me
