Removing the Stains
- Start with a gentle laundry detergent. Mix a few drops of it in some lukewarm water and dip a clean cloth in solution. Blot the stain with the cloth until it has been saturated.

- Rinse the stained area with clean water. If the stain is still there, mix together two tablespoons of baking soda and one cup of warm water. Rub the mixture onto the stained area and let it sit for 30 minutes. Rinse the stained area with clean water.
- If the stain is still present, repeat steps 1-3. Make sure to rinse stained area between each step.
