Step 1: Act Quickly

The best way to get rid of a dessert wine stain is to act quickly. The sooner that you can start trying to remove it, the better your chances are of being successful. Blot the stain gently with a clean cloth to soak up as much of the wine as possible, but do not rub it or scrub at it.

Step 2: Pretreat the Stain

Once you have blotted up as much of the spilled wine as possible, it’s time to pretreat the stain. The first thing you need to do is mix together a solution of warm water and laundry detergent. Submerge the stained area of the sleep pants into the solution and let it soak for at least 15 minutes.

Step 3: Machine Wash

Once the stain has had a chance to soak up the detergent solution, you can carefully transfer the sleep pants to the washing machine. Make sure to turn the machine’s dial to the delicate cycle and use cold water for the washing. You can add a capful of white vinegar to the load to help break down the wine stain even further.

Step 4: Air Dry

After the washing machine cycle is completed, transfer the pants to the dryer. However, turn the dryer off and allow pants to air dry instead. This will help ensure that the stain doesn’t set and become permanently ingrained in fabric of your sleep pants.
