Step-by-Step Instructions
- Check care label on your bag. If it is labelled ‘Wipe Clean Only’ or ‘Dry Clean Only’, do not attempt to clean the stain yourself as it can damage material.
- Blot the stained area with a damp cotton cloth. Avoid rubbing the stain as this could cause it to spread.
- Mix some mild laundry detergent with a bit of warm water. Apply the solution to the stained area using the cloth.
- Rinse off the stain with cold water and then dab with a dry cloth.
- In a bowl, mix together one tablespoon of white vinegar and two tablespoons of baking soda. Add some warm water to create a paste.
- Apply the paste to stained area using a clean cloth. Rub gently and then rinse well with cold water.
- Pat the area dry with a dry cloth.
Tips
- It is best to remove BBQ sauce stains as soon as possible since fresh stains are easier to remove than those that have been left to set.
