How to get was out of clothes?

Question

i have a black jacket that has what i (and some friends) think is white wax. i've put the jacket through a normal wash twice, and i've recently noticed that the wax is still there. is there a trick for getting wax out of clothing?

thanks :) all help is much appreciated!!

Answer 1

If it is wax

use a warm iron and paper towels

Answer 2

Yes, if you put a paper towel directly over the wax then iron the towel, the wax will melt and be absorbed by the paper towel, allowing you to remove it from the jacket.
