Don't worry, though. You don't have to resign yourself to living with crayon stains on your coat forever. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to clean any crayon stains off your clothing:
Step 1: Remove the Excess Crayon
Start by scraping off any excess crayon from the garment with a knife or spoon. Make sure to be gentle so you don't cause further damage to the fabric.
Step 2: Apply a Stain Remover
Next, apply a stain remover that is appropriate for fabric. You can find one that works best for your particular fabric type at most supermarkets. Make sure to read and follow the instructions on the packaging carefully.
Step 3: Let the Stain Remover Soak In
Once you have applied the stain remover, let it soak in for 5-10 minutes depending on the severity of the stain. Then rinse the area with cold water until it's completely removed.
Step 4: Wash Garment
Finally, wash the garment according to the instructions on the care label. You may need to use a pre-wash stain remover if the stain remains.
And that's it! With a few easy steps, you can make sure those pesky crayon stains are gone for good.
