Hi...

I have candle wax on my countertop in the kitchen... How can I get this off without scraping it (and the countertop)???

Any suggestions?

Just a thought.

I had some on a rug once, and was told to use an iron with a paper bag between the iron and the rug.. But not sure how well that would work on a counter. But I imagine some form of heating the wax back up, would help.

rednaz23:Candle Wax (on Kitchen Cabinets) Wrap an ice cube in a cotton cloth of plastic and rub it over the wax until it hardens. Then flick off as much as you can with a plastic spatula. After removing the wax, dissolve remaining residue by applying furniture cleaner (not polish) with a soft cloth and buffing the area with a dry cotton cloth. If some waxy residue still remains, repeat applications of furniture cleaner as noted above until it's gone.
