Step 1 - Wash the Dress in Cold Water
The first step is to wash the dress in cold water as soon as possible after the spill. It's important to use cold water as hot water may set stain and make it harder to remove. If the area of the stain is large, it may be necessary to soak the dress for several hours before continuing to the next step.
Step 2 - Pre-treat the Stain with a Detergent
Once the dress has been soaked in cold water for several hours, use a detergent specifically designed to pre-treat stains. Apply a small amount of solution directly to the stain and gently rub it in using a soft cloth. Allow this to sit for 10-15 minutes before moving on to the next step.
Step 3 - Rinse with Warm Water
After the pre-treatment solution has had time to work on stain, rinse the area with warm water. Be sure to rinse thoroughly until all the detergent is removed.
Step 4 - Treat the Stain with a Stain Remover
Now it's time to apply a stain remover to help break down any remaining residue on the fabric. Apply a small amount of the solution directly to the stained area and allow it to soak for 10-15 minutes. If the stain is still visible, you may need to repeat this step.
Step 5 - Wash the Dress Again in Cold Water
Finally, wash the dress again in cold water. This time you can use a regular detergent instead of a pre-treatment solution. Once the cycle is complete, hang the dress up to dry. The dessert wine stain should have vanished!
