Crayon

Hiya,

I was just wondering how you get crayon out of carpets?

My neice's wee friend drew all over her pink carpet...obviously my sister is livid but the friend's mum isn't bothered :mad: and now sister is stuck for ways to get it out!

Help!!

I don't know if it would work on carpets but I have used hairspray to remove crayon marks left on walls (left over from previous tennants) - I spray it either direct onto the wall or onto a cloth, then gently scrub away at the marks

Crayon is wax so would brown paper and an iron work? I would try this before the hairspray

I looked this it up on the crayola site, it might work,

How to remove Crayons (Regular) from carpet and upholstery:

Cleaning Materials
Sponge
Paper towels
Dull knife or metal spoon
WD-40® (car part lubricant)
Liquid dishwashing detergent
Small stiff bristle brush
Amodex® ink & stain remover (optional)

Stain Removal Tips
Scrape excess crayon off with a dull-edge knife or metal spoon. Spray with WD-40 and let stand a few minutes. With a small, stiff bristle brush work crayon stain and wipe with paper towels. Respray with WD-40 and apply liquid dishwashing detergent on the sprayed area; work in with the brush and wipe stain away with a damp sponge. If stain remains, repeat the procedure. For another method, use any brand upholstery cleaner as directed on the container.
