You could use a brown paper bag or paper towels over the wax stain and iron without steam. That should take care of the melted wax that has soaked into your mantle. Next make a paste of baking soda and water to the consistency of tooth paste and apply it to the remainder of the stain, put plastic sheeting over it over night. Wipe it off in the morning, it should be gone. Best to you.

Since it sounds like you have the wax off, here's a link with details on using vinegar for the stain:

Hi Ticia, what is your mantle made of?

Hi Ticia, hope this helps you out, How do you get candle wax off a mantle?

Rub an ice cube on the wax until it hardens fully, then use a dull knife to chip off the wax. If any wax remains, lay a paper bag or several paper towels over the area. Heat an iron on the lowest setting and rub the warm iron over the paper bag or paper towels until the wax soaks into the paper.

Thank you for all the suggestions at removing the wax which I have already done. The questions is how to get the red stain off the mantle which is some formulation of stone. It is not actual stone nor concrete so I don't know what to do to get it off. Was thinking perhaps vinegar might remove the stain but was thinking someone might actually know what to do. It's been said "if it's red you're dead' but am happy for all the suggestions that have been made. Thank you. Will try the vinegar. Had to put this reply here as I don't know how to add to my question.

Try heating with a blow dryer and scraping off. A cleaning paste with sponge should also get it off. Baking soda and hydrogen peroxide mixed or you can buy one like bio cleaner.

1. To accomplish this, use a heat gun or iron (with no steam) to gently heat and melt the remaining wax. Once it has melted, place a soft cloth or newspaper on top of the area and gently press. The wax should transfer to the newspaper or cloth and be pulled out of the brick. If wax still remains, try heating it until it is soft and then applying rubbing alcohol with the soft cloth. Rub gently until all of the wax is removed.

Pull rubber gloves on to protect your hands from irritation.

Combine 1 cup of ammonia with warm water. Wet a scrubbing brush with the diluted ammonia solution and use it to scrub off any oily residue from the candle wax.
