Step 1: Blot the Stain

The first step in removing a coffee or tea stain is to blot the stain with a clean, dry cloth. Do not rub the stain, as this can push the stain further into the fabric. Blot until no more liquid can be removed.

Step 2: Pre-Treat With Vinegar

After blotting stain, pre-treat the area with white vinegar. Using a clean cloth, apply a small amount of white vinegar directly to stain. Allow the vinegar to sit on stain for several minutes, then blot with a clean, dry cloth. Repeat process until the stain is gone.

Step 3: Wash the Item

Once the stain has been treated with vinegar, it's time to wash the item. Make sure to use a gentle detergent specifically designed for delicate fabrics, such as spandex. For best results, wash the item in cold water on a gentle cycle. After washing, check to make sure the stain is completely gone before drying the item.
