To remove chocolate stains from your hoodie you'll need the following supplies:
Before you attempt to remove the stain, you'll need to prepare it for treatment. Use a spoon to scrape away any bits of chocolate stuck to the fabric. Be careful not to rub the stain too harshly, as this could cause it to spread and make the stain more difficult to remove.
Create sudsy mixture by mixing a few drops of dishwashing soap and a tablespoon of white vinegar in a bowl. Use a cotton ball or swab to apply the mixture to the chocolate stain. Gently rub the stained area in a circular motion.
Once you've applied the soap and vinegar mixture, let it sit for a few minutes before blotting with a clean, dry cloth. Be sure to work slowly and use a light touch to avoid spreading the stain further.
If the stain seems particularly stubborn, use a soft-bristled toothbrush to gently scrub the area. This should help loosen the chocolate so that it can be blotted away.
Once stain has been treated, let the area air-dry. For best results, hang the hoodie up or lay it flat in a well-ventilated area. Do not put the hoodie in a clothes dryer — the heat could cause the stain to set.
Never do laundry again. Save time for things you ❤️
