I need information on the removal of candle wax from walls and cloth.

I have read everyone's miracle cures for red candle wax on the wall with the hair dryer and the Sol-U-Mel.
How do I get get hardened wax off the wall in my bedroom that's painted with flat paint?
The application of heat or cold. I think the best option would be to put wax paper over the hardened wax (attach it with tape that won't damage the wall), then hover a steam iron about a centimeter away from the wall. The heat will soften the wax, and the wax should adhere to the wax paper.
Another option is to cover with wax paper, and go over the spot with ice or an icepack. Chilling the wax will make it brittle, and it should pop off without too much difficulty.
I am trying to clean red candle wax from a white wall. How do I get the stain out?

I've heard, but never tried it myself. Use an ice cube to freeze the wax so that it just crumbles off the wall. The coloring from the candle may leave a stain on your wall that would need to be lightly sanded, primed and painted over, but freezing will generally get the majority of the wax itself off.
Any suggestions on how to remove candle wax from a wall would be appreciated.

I had to do this last week! I scrapped off what I could. Then I got the blow dryer and warmed it and blotted it off. Last, I went over it with magic eraser. It got all of mine off.
I use an old credit card to scrape it off and then nylon net to get the rest.
I recently got blue wax on a white wall from my candle. I picked the wax with my nail, but it's a day old and the stain is still there. It's not a gloss finished wall. Please help.

Gently scrape as much as you can off of the wall and then hold a white rag (that you don't care about) over the wax and then iron over the cloth with a medium low warm clothing iron. The heat from the iron will melt the wax and the cloth will soak the heated wax up.
How do you clean wax from a potpourri melt off of the wall? I blew out the tea light from underneath but was too high. The wax spattered all over the white textured wall.

I took the advice of using the hair dryer and kept wipping the wall with a paper towel idea. For the most part it worked but still had to go back and repaint the wall from the stain.
I was relighting a candle & I accidentally dropped it... splatter on the TV, wall, floor & my bed. I think I'm gonna go try that :]

How do I remove candle wax from my painted wall?

Try a hair dryer and be sure to catch it as it melts so it doesn't drip further on the wall.
Isopropyl alcohol 70% totally removed the red stain from white satin painted walls. The hair dryer is good for removing the excess but does not remove the stain.
