What You'll Need
- Dishwashing liquid
- Clean cloth
- Stain remover
- Ammonia-based cleaner*
- Laundry detergent powder of your choice
- Soft bristled brush
Step by Step Guide
- Before attempting any method, check care label of your blouse. If it is labelled as ‘dry clean only’, then take it to a professional dry cleaner.
- Blot the glue with a clean, damp cloth. Try not to rub the stain, as this can spread the glue further.
- Create a mixture of 1 teaspoon of dishwashing liquid and 2 cups of warm water. Dip a clean cloth into the mixture and dab the glue stain.
- Alternatively, you can apply a pre-made stain remover to glue stain. Follow the instructions given on the remover bottle and then dab the stained area with a soft cloth.
- If the stain persists, mix 1 tablespoon of ammonia-based cleaner with 2 cups of water. Dip a soft cloth into the mixture and dab it onto the stain. Allow it to sit for 10 minutes and then rinse off with clean water.
- Finally, wash the blouse in a washing machine with laundry detergent powder. Rinse it with cold water and hang it up to dry.
Precautions to Take
- Always test the stain remover or ammonia-based cleaner on a hidden area of blouse to make sure it does not damage the fabric.
- When blotting the glue, never rub it as this may spread the glue further.
- Do not use hot water, as this may set glue stain.
- Be careful when using the soft bristled brush, as it might damage fabric.
