Three-Step Cleaning Process

  1. Soak stained area in cold, soapy water for 10 to 20 minutes, then blot the fabric with a towel.
  2. Next, apply a pre-treatment cleaner like Zout or Shout to stain. Let it sit for about 10 minutes and then rinse the fabric in cold water. Blot with a towel to remove excess moisture.
  3. Finally, soak fabric in a mixture of one cup of white vinegar, ½ cup of baking soda, and 2 cups of hot water. Let it soak for 1 to 2 hours and then rinse in cold water and dry with a towel.

Helpful Hints

  • For extra tough stains, gently rub the pre-treatment cleaner into the fabric with a brush before applying.
  • If you don’t have a pre-treatment cleaner on hand, you can use a mixture of liquid detergent and warm water.
  • After the final rinse, use an absorbent cloth to blot up any remaining moisture.
  • Be sure to check the stained area for signs of improvement before placing fabric in the dryer. Heat will set the stain and make it permanent.

Conclusion

If you follow these steps carefully, your cotton voile should be stain-free in no time. With a little bit of patience and right cleaning method, you can remove pesky dessert wine stains from any type of fabric.
