Step 1: Blot the Stain Right Away
Immediately blot up as much of the stain as you can using a dry, absorbent cloth. Do not rub or scrub, as this can spread the stain and also cause damage to delicate fabric. Continue with this step until no more of the stain can be absorbed from the surface.
Step 2: Apply Detergent Solution
Mix a small amount of gentle detergent with cool water and dab the solution onto the stain. Be sure not to over-saturate the fabric with the liquid, as too much moisture can lead to discoloration or further damage.
Step 3: Rinse and Repeat
Rinse detergent solution off and repeat steps 2 and 3 until the stain is gone. If it isn't necessary, avoid using a washing machine, as this can be harmful to delicate fabrics.
Step 4: Blot Dry
Blot the area dry with an absorbent cloth to remove any residual moisture.
Step 5: Air or Low Heat Dry
Air dry area or use a low-heat setting on a clothes dryer to finish the cleaning process. Once the area is dry, the stain should be gone.
Conclusion
Removing a dessert wine stain from silk taffeta is a simple five-step process. After following these steps, you'll be able to enjoy your favorite formalwear once again.
