If you happen to have chocolate stains on your favorite cotton canvas material items, don’t worry! You can easily remove them following these steps:
- Moisten stained area with lukewarm water.
- Mix together some liquid laundry detergent and a small amount of cool water in a bowl.
- Sponge the chocolate stain with the detergent solution. Make sure to gently dab at area instead of rubbing it, as friction could worsen the stain.
- Rinse the area with room temperature water, and then blot it dry with a clean towel or cloth.
- If the stain persists, mix together one part white vinegar and two parts cool water, and apply it to the stain with a clean cloth. Blot the area until it is almost dry.
- Once the area is mostly dry, apply a few drops of mild dishwashing liquid directly onto the stained area. Rub the surface gently in a circular motion with a soft-bristled brush.
- Rinse the area with cool water, and then blot it dry with a clean cloth.
- Let the area air-dry completely.
- Once area is dry, inspect it for any remaining stains.
- If the stain is still present, repeat steps 1-9 until all traces of the stain are gone.
With these simple steps, you can be sure that all traces of chocolate from your cotton canvas materials will be removed.
