How to remove wundaweb

Apologies if this is not really 'old style' but anyway.

I'm trying to remove bits of wundaweb stuck to the side of some trousers where they were unsuccessfully altered. It's dried and hardened and gone black (the wundaweb, I mean).

  • Hi,

    Can you try using a warm (not hot) iron, over a piece of brown paper, and peel it off once it's melted? This is how you put it on, and I've successfully used the brown paper method for candlewax.

    I thought it was a warm iron with a damp tea towel to put it on, and the same to take it off. Mine is usually white.

    You may need to scrape it off while still warm, try not to burn yourself!
