Steps to Remove Feces Stains
- First, determine whether the affected area is wet, dry, or both.
- If the area is wet, gently blot the surface with an absorbent cloth.
- If the area is dry, use soap and water to moisten the stain before removal.
- If the stain persists, mix a teaspoon of ammonia in a cup of cold water and apply it to the area with a cloth.
- Wipe the stained area with a cloth soaked in lukewarm water.
- Apply a prewash stain remover to the affected area and launder with a color-safe bleach.
- Rinse fabric thoroughly and air dry.
A Few Tips to Keep in Mind
- Always use cold water when cleaning silk organza fabrics.
- Avoid scrubbing or rubbing the stain too hard, as this can cause the fabric to fray.
- Never use products containing bleach on delicate fabrics like silk organza.
- Test any cleaning solution on a small, inconspicuous area of the fabric before applying it to the entire stain.
