This task can seem daunting, but with the right techniques and materials, you can successfully remove adhesive tape stains from your duchess lace with minimal effort. Here’s how:

Gather Your Supplies

Before beginning, make sure you have all the supplies you'll need:

  • A plastic container
  • Mild liquid detergent
  • Olive oil
  • Soft-bristle brush
  • Clean white cloths

Soak Your Fabric

Fill the plastic container with lukewarm water and add a few drops of mild detergent. Let fabric soak for about 30 minutes to loosen the adhesive.

Apply Olive Oil

After soaking, use a soft-bristle brush to apply olive oil directly to the affected area. This will help to dissolve any remaining adhesive residue.

Remove the Stain

Allow olive oil to set for 15 minutes, then use a damp, white cloth to gently blot area. You may need to repeat this process a few times until the adhesive has been completely removed.

Rinse and Dry

Once adhesive has been removed, rinse the fabric in clean, lukewarm water. Pat it dry with a soft, white cloth, then hang it up to air dry completely.

Schedule

With these simple steps, you can keep your duchess lace free of adhesive stains. For best results, clean your fabric as soon as possible after stain occurs.
