i got some some pieces of wax pressed into my concrete driveway. It was about the same color as the concrete at first. Now the wax is completely black.

Does anyone have any suggestions for cleaning it up?

If you have a steam carpet cleaner or are renting one for other purposes, a quick shot of steaming hot water and a pass with the vacuum should get it. I have removed candle wax drips from carpet using one of these.

Or use a pot of scalding hot water and a shop vac rigged for wet pickup.

Did you remember:
1) wax burns?
2) wax evaporates under heat?

In the MO summer, a few mirrors placed next to it might possible do the trick. I know _I_ would melt under the heat of 3-4 suns. Probably go up in a puff of smoke, too.
