Clean Oil Pastels From Tile

Oil pastels have rich colors and smooth textures.


Oil pastels are composed of pigments, wax and oil. They typically come in the form of sticks and are used for drawing. When you draw with oil pastels, the texture that they have on paper is smooth and shiny. However, sometimes they can be messy and it is possible to stain the tile floor while trying to use them. It is good to know clean oil pastels from tile because this will help you to be more prepared in case of accidents.


Instructions


1. Determine the location of the stain. To know where to begin cleaning the tile, it is necessary that you find the stain. For example, the stain may be at the center of the tile.


2. Put some dishwashing liquid on either a wet paper towel or a wet cloth. You can use either, but a wet cloth may be better for scrubbing because it is less likely to rip.


3. Rub the paper towel or the cloth in a circular motion over the oil pastel stain until you see the stain fade.


4. Dry the area of the former oil pastel stain with a dry cloth or dry paper towel. If you still see some of the oil pastel color, put some soap on a wet paper towel or wet cloth, and rub the spot until it vanishes.
