HOW TO CLEAN UP A SPILL!

OOOPS! I SPILLED MY WAX!

STEP ONE: DON'T PANIC!
 

I have had some customers call me, with panic in the voice:  

"BRITTANY I SPILLED MY WAX!"
 

 
The GREAT, FANTASTIC, WONDERFUL, AMAZING thing about Scentsy wax, is that it's simple to clean up! No matter how small, or dramatic the spill may be, you can get it off! It may take some effort, but it can be done!
 
 
So how is it done? RE-MELT THE WAX MY FRIENDS!
 
 
Clothes/Material:

For materials that can be transported, take them to the ironing board. Put a paper towel/paper bag over the wax and then iron over it.  The iron melts the wax again and the paper towel absorbs it up.
 
Hard Surfaces:
Put the paper towel on the wax again and then use a hair dryer to heat the wax, again, the melted wax will be absorbed by the paper towel.
 
Carpets/Couches/Upholstery:
Use the iron method again, use a paper towel or paper bag.
 
 
There are many other methods out there, including the elbow grease method (use something to scrape it all up) but I find the melting/heating of the wax works the best for me!
 
 
 
If you have any other tips/tricks, let me know!
 
 
 
PS! If you find that your hard surface has a residue left over, you can use a SMALL amount of rubbing alcohol to clean up the residue, but be careful as you can remove stains/varnishes/paint on furniture and floors or paint from your walls with rubbing alcohol if you use too much!
 
 
 
** Always use a very low heat setting on your iron, otherwise you may ruin your surfaces that you are trying to fix! **
