How to: Remove Regular Crayons from fabric - fresh, heat-set, or melted 

Scrape off as much crayon as possible.  Apply liquid dish soap and work into the stained area.  Let stand a few minutes, rub fabric under warm water to remove the  stain.  Machine wash using the heavy soil setting and the hottest water the fabric will allow with OxiClean or Clorox 2.  Allow to air dry.  Repeat as needed.

ALTERNATE SUGGESTION:  Amodex Ink & Stain remover should be used per the manufacturer's directions.  Available by calling 1-800-624-7367 or www.Fahrneyspens.com or Amazon.com.

Dryer Drum:  Wipe the stained area with paper towels to remove as much crayon as possible.  Use Mr. Clean Magic Eraser per the manufacturer's direction.  Clean, dry rags can be placed in the dryer and ran through a cycle to remove any remaining stain.  Repeat as needed.

Please Note:

The suggestions for removing stains have been compiled as a service to our consumers. We are unable to guarantee or be responsible for the results obtained by these procedures. You may also wish to consult your local cleaner for further recommendations.

Before attempting the stain removal method, test each procedure on an inconspicuous area of the material or surface to be cleaned. Please be advised these stain removal methods involve hazardous products and are intended only for adult use. Crayola does not recommend children attempt these procedures.

In many procedures, specific brands of products are recommended. These are brands that performed most effectively in our laboratory. Always check individual containers for recommended procedures and warnings. Competitive brand products may work equally well.
