The key to cleaning any stain is to act quickly. If the stain is fresh, take a paper towel and dab sauce from the fabric as soon as possible. Be careful to use a light hand and avoid rubbing the stain, as this can spread the sauce which will make it harder to clean.
Once the excess sauce is gone, rinse the area with lukewarm water. This will help dilute the sauce and remove more of stain. You may need to repeat this process multiple times until the sauce is no longer visible.
If the stain persists after rinsing, try pre-treating the area with a stain remover. There are many products available on the market that are specifically designed to remove stubborn stains from fabrics. Follow the product directions carefully to ensure the best results.
Once the stain has been pre-treated, it's time to wash garment. Check the label first to make sure you use a compatible detergent and washing cycle. Depending on severity of the stain, you may want to treat it one more time before laundering.
Never do laundry again. Save time for things you ❤️
