For fresh stains, it is best to act quickly. Start by blotting up as much of stain as possible. Do not rub or scrub the fabric as this may cause permanent damage. The next step is to mix a solution of 1 part mild detergent and 10 parts water. Dip a clean cloth in solution, wring it out, and gently dab stained area. Avoid harsh scrubbing as this can cause more damage. Then, use a clean cloth dampened with lukewarm water to rinse the area. Finally, dry the garment using a clean towel.
Set stains may require a bit more effort to remove. First, pre-treat the stain with a spray-on stain remover. Be sure to test the stain remover on a small inconspicuous area of the garment first to make sure it won't cause any discoloration. Then, let the pre-treater sit for 15 minutes before machine washing. If necessary, use a soft-bristle brush to help lift the stain before washing. Finally, air dry the garment to avoid any permanent damage from the dryer.
If the Banana Republic garment is made from a delicate fabric such as silk or wool, the steps for cleaning should be adjusted. Since these fabrics are more prone to shrinkage and discoloration, hand washing is recommended. Begin by mixing a solution of 1 tablespoon mild detergent, 1 tablespoon white vinegar, and 2 cups of lukewarm water. Soak the garment for 10 minutes, then rinse with cold water. Make sure to blot up the excess water and lay flat to dry. Do not hang or tumble dry.
