Default Looking for a dry cleaner....

in The Villages or Leesburg or even Ocala that can remove dried candlewax from a pair of men's slacks that are dry cleaned only. Any one have any recommendations?

Have you tried the drycleaner in Colony Plaza on CR 466A?

I've used the dry cleaners at Colony and they seemed to do a good job... at least I didn't leave there feeling depressed.

At a wedding reception I spilled hot candlewax on my slacks. The cleaners at Colony Plaza got it out, so I was happy.

Wildwood Quality Cleaners is fantastic. They do the work at the location below and also have a pick up a delivery to your door in The Villages. Prices are very reasonable and the quality of their work is great. Look for the large hanger over their building. The building is nothing fancy but they do great work. I have used them for several years.

Another vote for Wildwood and about half the price of those in The Villages.

Thanks all for your responses. The cleaners at Colony were used and they successfully got out white candlewax from a pair of navy blue slacks. Great job!
