Hi. New patio has been finished about two weeks. Eldest daughter had a citronella candle out there, and dropped it. Spilt a fair amount of hot molten wax. I then scrubbed it to get the majority of the surface wax off - but we have a large stain. Any clues as to how to remove it?? I'll be eternally grateful for any advice. We've tried an iron on brown paper, but that really hasn't touched it. Thanks in advance!

Couple of things you could try, a decent sealing & coating remover or something that should work is Weiss Extra KT (it's a poultice) you can get this from Steintec
Just did a massive Bar-B-Q grease stain last week with the Extra-KT, on Black Limestone removed everything last bit of grease. The annoying thing was I'd only cleaned the patio about 6 days beforehand for the client.

Thank you very much,Roger. Will that product damage the stone in any way?

No both are designed for use on Natural Stone
