First break up any pieces that you can remove with a screwdriver leaving just what is actually stuck to the carpet. Next use several paper towels folded and a medium hot iron and place towels over wax and place iron on top of the towels for a few minutes, you will notice the wax melting and being absorbed into the towels. Keep repeating this process until no more wax can be absorbed into the towels. Remember faster is not better, adding more heat will melt the carpet fibers as well as the wax so be patient.

How do you remove depilatory wax from upholstory?

Depilatory wax is tough to remove, but steam heat seems to be best solution. Use a steam iron with an old cotton dish cloth over and under the garment and use the highest heat possible for the fabric with full steam. Keep moving the dish cloth to areas that have not soaked up the wax. After removing as much wax as possible with steam, then try applying a professional instant carpet stain remover such as "Spot Shot". Spray it, then wipe off.

What effect would depilatory creams have on waxing?

Using depilatory creams before waxing can make the wax less effective, as the creams remove hair at the root, making it harder for the wax to grip the hair. This can lead to incomplete hair removal or irritation. It's generally recommended to avoid using depilatory creams for a few days before waxing to ensure better results.
