Apparently he`s tried getting it out with an Iron and a Paper Bag, but it hasn`t completely come out...



Anyone have some tips for me to hopefully get this completely out?



Thanks for any advice!

WD40 and a stiff bristle brush



obviously, test on the fabric in a hidden area first.

A dry cleaning solvent should work. Another option is a steamer if you have one.

yeah steam gets my vote, had a similar problem in my c320 thanks to my rugrats, mb fabrics are not easy to clean and i dont feel they are very high quality for the most part but with steam all doodles were eliminated

steam would work add in a bit of neutral detergent (folex) and it should come out into a clean terry towel.



you need heat and you need a detergent of some sort to make short work of it. Make sure the detergent is neutral PH other wise you could potentially wick the wax/color further out.
