Removing a stain from a tunic can be tricky because of fabrics used and the level of delicacy involved. Dessert wine stains, in particular, can be difficult to remove since they contain high levels of sugar, tannins, and acidity. The best approach to removing these stains is to act quickly and use correct cleaning products and procedures to minimize damage to the fabric. Here’s what you should do:

The Steps

  1. If the dessert wine stain is still wet, use a clean cloth to blot it. Don’t rub as this can only spread the stain and damage the fabric.
  2. Once the stain has been blotted up, mix a solution of warm water and laundry detergent in a bowl. Submerge the affected area in mixture for about 5 minutes.
  3. Once the fabric has had time to soak, rinse out detergent solution with cold water.
  4. If the stain is still visible, apply a small amount of liquid dish soap to the area. Use a soft brush to scrub the fabric gently. Be sure to work the soap into the creases for maximum effectiveness.
  5. Once you’ve finished scrubbing, rinse out the dish soap.
  6. Finally, if you’re satisfied with results, hang the tunic in a well-ventilated area to dry.

By following these steps, you should be able to remove dessert wine stains from your tunic without damaging fabric. If the stain persists, it’s best to take the item to a professional cleaner.
