Do I have to pre-treat the stain before laundering?

No, it's best to let the cleaning solution do the work and then launder the camisole as usual.

Can I use hot water to rinse the stain?

No, hot water may cause the stain to set further into the fabric, so always use cold water when treating the stain.

Step 1: Blot Stain Immediately

As soon as you notice the stain, use a clean, absorbent cloth to blot the area. Don't rub or scrub the fabric, as this will only spread the stain out. Keep gently blotting until most of the liquid has been absorbed.

Step 2: Rinse with Cold Water

Once you've blotted the stain, rinse it with cold water. This will help prevent the stain from setting permanently into the fabric. If possible, try to rinse from the backside of the garment. Again, be gentle - do not scrub or rub the stain.

Step 3: Apply a Cleaning Solution

If some of stain remains after rinsing, it's time to grab a cleaning solution. Start by mixing up a gentle cleaner, like dish soap, with cold water. Be sure to spot test the solution on a small patch of fabric before applying it to the stained area. Once the solution passes spot test, apply it to the stain and let it sit for a few minutes.

Step 4: Rinse, Repeat as Needed

After a few minutes, rinse the area with cold water then blot dry with a clean cloth. If some of the stain remains, reapply cleaning solution and repeat process until the stain is gone. If dish soap isn't working, you can try using a special stain remover, like OxiClean.

Step 5: Launder as Usual

Once the stain is gone, launder the camisole as usual according to the care instructions. But be sure to check to make sure the stain is completely gone before putting the garment in the dryer - heat of the dryer can set the stain if it's still there.
