Hot wax dripped on my blouse that is 92 Polyester/ 8 Spandex. I washed it and it didn't come out.
Any ideas?
thanks.

    Hi
    Place a piece of paper towel over the wax, and with a iron ( temperature for your fabric) press on top of wax. The wax will absorb into the paper towel…do this over and over using a clean area of paper towel each time.I've used this method many times and have been happy with the results.

    Try laying a damp cloth on the stain and then iron it on medium heat. The heat should melt any excess wax and the steam should clean the oils from the wax.

    Candle Wax – Use dull knife to scrape off as much wax as possible. Place fabric between two blotters or facial tissues and press with warm iron. Remove color stains with non-flammable dry cleaning solvent. Wash with detergent in the hottest water safe for fabric.
