    Hey, Does anybody have any tips for removing candle grease stain from gents MACHINE washable suit?

    Was at a big gig at the weekend where the well known FRONK had done a fantastic table display of flowers and CANDLES and unfortunately a movement of the hand at the wrong time, meant the grease hit the cuff of suit. Managed to scrape most of it off but the residue needs attention. Advice much appreciated.

    I heard that if you iron over the stain with a warm not hot iron with a sheet of brown paper over the stain works. It can't do any harm I suppose. Maybe it might be a good idea to take the suit to a dry cleaners and ask them what they suggest? Or you could try the pink vanish stuff that you put into your washing machine, I've never used it on a wax stain but its great on other difficult ones.
    Good luck with it.
