Start by gathering the materials you’ll need. To accomplish this task, you will need:
Once you have the supplies, mix mild detergent with warm water in a bowl. Make sure not to use too much detergent, or else the solution might be too harsh for the fabric.
Use your clean microfiber cloth to dip into detergent and water mixture, and then wring it out so that it’s damp. Gently rub the affected area of the dress with the cloth, working it back and forth until sticky residue begins to loosen.
Once the adhesive has been removed, rinse area with clean water. Use the damp microfiber cloth to remove any remaining soap residue.
After the garment has been rinsed, leave it to air dry. Do not use a hairdryer or other heat sources to speed up the drying process, as this could damage fabric.
Never do laundry again. Save time for things you ❤️
