Pre-Treat the Stain
First, you should gently rub a pre-treatment stain remover into the material, then let it sit for 5-10 minutes. This will help break down the stain, making it easier to remove.
Soak the Gown in White Vinegar
Fill a tub or basin with lukewarm water and a cup of distilled white vinegar. Submerge the stained area of gown in the solution, and let it sit for 15-20 minutes. The vinegar helps loosen the stain and restore the fabric's natural pH level.
Wash the Gown in Cold Water
Once you have removed the gown from the water and vinegar mixture, wash it on a gentle cycle in cold water with a mild detergent. Avoid using bleach or harsh chemicals as these can damage the fabric.
Air dry the Gown
To finish up, lay the gown flat on a clean towel and air dry it. Never use a dryer when trying to remove a stain from a delicate fabric.
