Steps for Cleaning a Dessert Wine Stain
- Test fabric. Before beginning, check the care label on the headband. If the fabric is delicate, skip the vinegar and baking soda and take the headband to a professional cleaner instead.
- Apply detergent. Start by dabbing a small amount of Dawn detergent onto stained area. Gently massage it into the fabric.
- Scrub with toothbrush. Dip an old toothbrush into warm water. Use toothbrush to scrub the detergent into the stained area.
- Soak. Fill a small bowl with lukewarm water, then place the stained headband in water. Leave it for 20 minutes.
- Rinse and dry. Rinse the headband thoroughly under lukewarm water, then lay it on a white towel to dry.
- Use baking soda and vinegar. If the stain remains, mix together a scoop of baking soda and one cup of vinegar. Spread the paste over the stain, then let it sit for 15 minutes.
- Remove the paste. After 15 minutes, use a wet cotton swab to wipe away the baking soda and vinegar paste.
- Dry again. Once the paste is removed, lay the headband out on a white towel and let it air dry.
