How to Clean Dessert Wine Stains from Suits
- Start by blotting up as much of the stain as you can with a clean paper towel or cloth, then rinse the material with cold water.
- Mix one teaspoon of dishwashing liquid with one quart of warm water in a bowl or bucket.
- Soak the stained area in the mixture for at least 10 minutes.
- Blot the area with same clean cloth or paper towel. Do not rub the fabric, as it may cause the stain to spread.
- Repeat steps 2-4 until the stain is gone.
- If the stain remains, mix 1 part white vinegar with two parts cold water, and let the material soak for 30 minutes.
- Rinse the fabric in cold water and launder as usual.
